Abstract: Objective To explore effects of different urostomy education paths in patients undergoing cystectomy with creation of a urostomy.Methods 42 cases of patients after radical cystectomy with creation of a urostomy were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group. The control group received the original version of urostomy education path, while observation group received modified version of urostomy education path. Knowledge of urostomy, stoma bag replacing skills, and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Results Patients in the observation group who received modified version of urostomy education path showed better knowledge of urostomy and skills of replaceing stomy bag, as well as shorter hospital stay (P<0.05).Conclusions Our modified version of urostomy education path results in improved self-care ability among patients and their family members.
