Received grant in 2019
DCCC has funded 200,000 DKK to the project.
Preparation of a national study aiming to develop and validate a tool to measure patients’ ability and skills necessary to independently perform a full change of a stoma appliance after bowel cancer surgery. The tool is expected to support an individual and targeted intervention before and after surgery and during the rehabilitation to support self-efficacy and health related quality of life. Moreover, future scientific studies will investigate the need for and effect of pedagogical interventions to facilitate a higher level of stoma self-efficacy.
