Medicine and Nursing
Description
The colon is the last part of the human digestive tract. It consists of the colon, rectum and anus which is the most final part that performs defecation or defecation. The task of the colon is to absorb fluids, residual nutrients, pass on fecal materials, and dispose of them. When the colon, rectum, or anus cannot perform this function due to various diseases or traumatic injuries, then another way must be found to eliminate fecal material. The colostomy consists of an opening (stoma) of the colon and its ascent to the abdominal wall, creating a new communication to eliminate gases and feces.The colostomy may be temporary, meaning that after a few weeks or months an operation is performed and it is closed in order to restore the normalization of the intestinal transit, but it can also be permanent. When the colostomy is permanent it means that the patient will no longer be able to defecate from the anus, as it is impossible to restore the normality of the intestinal transit.Purpose: To understand patient self- care and health education needs for patients with colostomy after rectal carcinoma surgery to provide basic information to improve the quality of nursing.In some cases, unfortunately, complications can occur after stoma formation surgery, these are discussed and nursing advice is given. One of the most important ways a nurse can support a patient is to teach the patient his or her stomach care, ensuring independence before discharge and showing empathy and compassion.Methodology: The research was conducted at UCCK, Prishtina leads with more cases of colorectal cancer than other municipalities in Kosovo.The research was used in 20 patients suffering from rectal carcinoma after colostomy. Some patients experienced defecation disturbances and disorder. Only a few patients could achieve self-care for colostomy before leaving the hospital. Patients' first need for health education was to understand how to train up to regular defecation.Results: There were significant results between nursing interventions and different dimensions 1 month and 6 months after surgery. Routine nursing care plus full course intervention can significantly improve patients ’quality and quality of life after colostomy.
