Abstract

Abstract Surgical treatment and formation of a stoma can be lifesaving for colorectal cancer patients. However, the quality of life is often impaired in patients with stoma. The goal of this study is to determine the quality of life of patients with stoma and cancer, and the relationship between the quality of life and characteristics of these patients. The study was conducted from 2018 to 2020 and included a total of 64 patients of both sexes with colorectal cancer and temporary or permanent stoma. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer with Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQC29-30) and the anonymous WHO Quality of Life Questionnaire SF-36 were used for self-assessment of quality of life. Our study included 39 (61.0%) men and 25 (39.0%) women. 24 patients (37.5%) had colostomy, 14 patients (21.9%) had ileostomy, and 26 patients (40.6%) underwent surgery for resection of colorectal cancer without stoma. A significant number of women were in the group of patients with a permanent stoma (p = 0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the assessment of general health (p = 0.680) and quality of life (p = 0.721) during the past month in relation to gender. Patients without a stoma rated their general health better compared to those with stoma and the difference reached statistical significance (p = 0.035). There was no statistically significant difference in the assessment of quality of life between the group of patients with stoma and without stoma, as well as between the patients of different age groups. Patients with stoma rated their general health as worse, but not their quality of life.

结直肠癌和口腔癌患者的生活质量

摘要外科治疗和造瘘可挽救癌症大肠癌患者的生命。然而，造口患者的生活质量往往受到损害。本研究的目的是确定造口和癌症患者的生活质量，以及这些患者生活质量与特征之间的关系。该研究于2018年至2020年进行，共有64名患有结直肠癌癌症和临时或永久性造口的男女患者。采用欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织生活质量问卷（EORTC QLQC29-30）和匿名的世界卫生组织生活质量问卷SF-36进行生活质量自我评估。我们的研究包括39名（61.0%）男性和25名（39.0%）女性。结肠造瘘24例（37.5%），回肠造瘘14例（21.9%），无造瘘结直肠癌癌症切除术26例（40.6%）。有永久性造口的患者中有相当多的女性（p=0.01）。在过去一个月里，总体健康（p=0.680）和生活质量（p=0.721）的评估与性别之间没有统计学上的显著差异。与有造口的患者相比，没有造口的患者对其总体健康状况的评价更好，差异达到统计学意义（p=0.035）。有造口患者和没有造口患者组以及不同年龄组的患者在生活质量评估方面没有统计学意义的差异。造口患者认为他们的总体健康状况较差，但生活质量较差。
