Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe factors affecting body image and sexual life for colorectal cancer patients with stoma.
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive correlational study was applied to 102 ostomates from June to November in 2015 using self-report questionnaires: the Body image scale (BIS), and the Derogatis interview for sexual functioning self report (DISF-SR).
Results: The influencing factors for body image were ‘need for preoperative sexual education and sexual counseling’ (β=-.29, p=.003), and clinical stage II of colorectal cancer (β=-.26, p=.006). The influencing factor for sexual life was educational level (college education or higher) (β=.21, p=.02).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that colorectal cancer patients with stoma had a negative body image. The sexual counseling and education for ostomates should be approached by considering gender characteristics.
