Implementação e avaliação de um vídeo educativo para famílias de pessoas com colostomia

Abstract

Living with cancer and colostomy generally causes a strong impact on the person who went through the procedure as well as for his or her family due to several diseases-related circumstances. Colostomy care continues after the patient is released from the hospital. In this new phase, the patient and his or her family may have various feelings such as insecurity and doubts. In this sense, it is important that the nurse develop educative actions to offer tools to manage the colostomy and make the affected people stronger. This thesis research question is as follows: What is the repercussion of nursing intervention through an educational video to the families that have a member that went through colostomy due to cancer? The main objective is to implement and to evaluate the repercussion of nursing intervention through an educational video to the families that have a member that went through colostomy due to cancer.
