Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The proposed project is a prospective quasi-experimental study to be conducted at the Ostomy Clinic of the University Hospital Complex of Santiago de Compostela. The primary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of health education as a nursing intervention in reducing anxiety and depression and improving the quality of life of ostomy patients following digestive surgery. The study will focus on adult patients who have undergone an elimination ostomy, excluding terminal patients and those with cognitive impairments. The study involves clinical follow-up of patients from hospital admission to several months after completing the health education program. Validated scales will be used to measure quality of life, anxiety, and depression. The intervention will consist of health education workshops and continuous follow-up by specialized nursing staff.
