Abstrakt: The aim was to analyse changes in the perceived quality of life of patients with an ostomy during the first year after surgery at two or three follow‐ups. This is a prospective study of a cohort of 55 patients who were ostomised between June 2021 and September 2022 and cared for under the recommendations set out in the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario® best practice guideline Supporting Adults Who Anticipate or Live with an Ostomy as part of the Best Practice Spotlight Organisation® (BPSO®) programme. The Stoma Quality of Life tool was used. A univariate analysis was performed to identify variables associated with a non‐improvement in quality of life. Variables showing p < 0.1 were included in a multivariate model. Patients with an ostomy exhibited a moderate‐to‐good perception of quality of life in both the personal and social dimensions, with no worsening over the first year. Being female (OR = 10.32) and being younger (OR = 0.89) were associated with a higher risk of no improvement in quality of life. The most frequent complications were urinary leakage (p = 0.027) and dermatitis (p = 0.052) at first follow‐up; and parastomal hernia (p = 0.009) and prolapse (p = 0.05) at third follow‐up. However, they did not lead to a worsening of quality of life, suggesting that these patients were adequately supported under the BPSO® programme. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
