Abstract:
Objective:To explore the dilemmas and demands encountered by enterostomal therapists in providing sexual education or guidance to young and middle-aged patients with enterostomy.Methods:From April to October 2022, purposive sampling was used to select 15 enterostomal therapists who received training at the International School of Stomatologists for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used for data analysis.Results:Three themes were extracted, namely the "negative behavior" and "positive willingness" of enterostomal therapists, the multiple dilemmas in implementing sex education for young and middle-aged patients with enterostomy, and the demands for sexual education for young and middle-aged patients with enterostomy.Conclusions:Enterostomal therapists should actively pay attention to the sexual education for young and middle-aged patients with enterostomy, overcome multiple obstacles that affect the lack of sexual education for young and middle-aged patients with enterostomy, and persist in promoting sexual education for young and middle-aged patients with enterostomy in clinical practice, in order to improve the marital relationship and quality of marriage between patients and their spouses.
