The Progress of Social Isolation in Patients with Enterostomy during Discharge Transition Period.

In terms of social and psychological health of enterostomy patients during hospitalization and discharge transition period, the degree of social isolation in patients during discharge transition period is higher than that during hospitalization period, which is usually manifested by poor self-perception of body image changes. Self-esteem (shame) frustration, severe negative emotions, low psychosocial adjustment, and other factors are closely related to postoperative complications, coping self-efficacy, social support level, family living conditions, and other influencing factors. This is an important reason why patients are difficult to adapt to ostomy life and low quality of life. At present, it is believed that the social isolation related evaluation scale can be used to understand the status quo of patients with social isolation and provide nursing guidance, so as to better cope with the adverse medical outcomes caused by social isolation.
