To identify key factors influencing readiness for hospital discharge and delve into the experiences of stoma patients regarding their discharge.
A mixed-methods study.
A total of 374 colorectal cancer patients with stomas were involved to assess discharge readiness and its influencing factors. Additionally, 28 stakeholders-comprising surgeons, nursing managers, surgical nurses, enterostomal therapists, stoma patients and their family caregivers-participated in semistructured interviews. Data on discharge readiness, discharge teaching quality, stoma self-efficacy and social support were collected using validated scales. In-depth interviews provided further insights into discharge preparation experiences. Multivariate logistic regression analysis using IBM SPSS 26.0 and thematic analysis via NVivo 12.0 were employed for data analysis.
Six variables accounted for 80% of the variance in discharge readiness: quality of discharge teaching, stoma self-efficacy, social support, age, gender and family income. Four main themes emerged: ambivalence towards discharge, insufficient preparation time, inadequate communication of discharge information and personal planning needs.
Discharge readiness among stomas patients is influenced by perceived discharge teaching quality, self-efficacy, social support, age, gender and family income. Insufficient preparation and poor communication hinder effective discharge information transfer. Enhanced, patient-centred discharge planning is expected to improve the transition from hospital to home.
IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE: To improve hospital discharge readiness and facilitate a smooth transition to family care, it is essential to implement patient-centred discharge planning.

确定影响出院准备情况的关键因素,并深入了解造口患者的出院体验。
一项混合方法研究。
共纳入374例结直肠癌造口患者,以评估出院准备情况及其影响因素。此外,28名利益相关者(包括外科医生、护理管理者、外科护士、造口治疗师、造口患者及其家庭照顾者)参与了半结构化访谈。使用经过验证的量表收集出院准备情况、出院指导质量、造口自我效能感和社会支持方面的数据。深入访谈进一步深入了解了出院准备体验。使用IBM SPSS 26.0进行多变量逻辑回归分析,并通过NVivo 12.0进行主题分析以进行数据分析。
六个变量占出院准备情况差异的80%:出院指导质量、造口自我效能感、社会支持、年龄、性别和家庭收入。出现了四个主要主题:对出院的矛盾心理、准备时间不足、出院信息沟通不足和个人规划需求。
造口患者的出院准备情况受感知的出院指导质量、自我效能感、社会支持、年龄、性别和家庭收入的影响。准备不足和沟通不畅阻碍了有效的出院信息传递。加强以患者为中心的出院计划有望改善从医院到家庭的过渡。
对专业和/或患者护理的启示:为提高出院准备情况并促进顺利过渡到家庭护理,实施以患者为中心的出院计划至关重要。
