This study explored the postoperative self-care experiences of patients who underwent colostomy in Indonesia.
A qualitative study with a cross-sectional and descriptive design.
Through purposive sampling, we enrolled 20 patients (men, n=14) who had undergone colostomy in Indonesia. In 2020, in-person interviews were conducted to collect data for content analysis.
Content analysis revealed six themes: primary stressors, secondary stressors, coping style, family support, outcome expectations, and professional resources. Patients who have undergone colostomy often experience challenges (primary and secondary stressors) in fulfilling their self-care needs. They can overcome these challenges through personal coping strategies and family support. The patients also require that professional resources meet their expectations.
This study highlights the real-life experiences of patients living with a colostomy in Indonesia. Their insights provide valuable information on the challenges they face and the coping strategies they use. By understanding their experiences, health-care professionals, policymakers, and the public can develop better support systems, educational programmes, and related resources to improve the quality of life for colostomy patients.
本研究探讨了印度尼西亚接受结肠造口术患者的术后自我护理经历。
一项采用横断面和描述性设计的定性研究。
通过目的抽样，我们招募了20名在印度尼西亚接受结肠造口术的患者（男性14名）。2020年，进行了面对面访谈以收集数据进行内容分析。
内容分析揭示了六个主题：主要压力源、次要压力源、应对方式、家庭支持、结果期望和专业资源。接受结肠造口术的患者在满足自我护理需求方面经常遇到挑战（主要和次要压力源）。他们可以通过个人应对策略和家庭支持来克服这些挑战。患者还要求专业资源符合他们的期望。
本研究突出了印度尼西亚结肠造口术患者的现实生活经历。他们的见解提供了有关他们所面临挑战以及所采用应对策略的宝贵信息。通过了解他们的经历，医疗保健专业人员、政策制定者和公众可以开发更好的支持系统、教育计划和相关资源，以提高结肠造口术患者的生活质量。
