Abstract

Background:

Patients with an intestinal stoma experience psychological difficulties, including disturbances in self-efficacy and self-esteem. There is evidence that they are interdependent.

Aim:

This study aimed to determine the correlation between self-efficacy and self-esteem in patients with an intestinal stoma.

Methods:

A descriptive-correlational study was conducted with 155 patients with an intestinal stoma. Participants were selected using convenience sampling. Data were collected using demographic questions, the stoma self-efficacy scale and the Rosenberg self-esteem scale, and analysed using descriptive and analytical statistics.

Findings:

Seventy-nine men and 76 women took part; the 50–70 years age group had the highest proportion of participants. Regarding diagnosis, 52.26% had cancer and 45.81% had inflammatory bowel disease or related conditions. Pearson's correlation coefficient indicated a positive, significant correlation between total self-efficacy and its dimensions with self-esteem (P<0.001; r=0.54).

Conclusion:

Self-efficacy is positively correlated with self-esteem in patients with an intestinal stoma. It is recommended that educational interventions are planned and implemented to boost self-esteem and self-efficacy in these patients.

A stoma is an opening in the abdomen for the purpose of excretion; it is created for a variety of reasons including cancer and trauma as well as inflammatory and obstructive conditions (Gozuyesil et al, 2017). Colorectal cancer is considered to be one of the main reasons for stoma formation. Among men, the three most prevalent cancers are pulmonary, prostate and colorectal; among women, breast and colorectal cancer are the commonest (Jemal et al, 2011). Intestinal stomas are created mostly in older people due to cancer; younger people may need a stoma because of inflammation in the small intestine (Bazalinski et al, 2014).

In Iran, there were 9864 new cases of colorectal cancer (9% of all cancers) in 2018 (World Health Organization (WHO), 2019a). Worldwide colorectal cancer accounts for 10.2% of all cancers (WHO, 2019b).
