Introduction
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening from the intestines to the outside of the body, allowing for the rerouting of effluent. This opening is known as a stoma. A stoma usually protrudes above the skin surface, appearing pink or red, moist, and round, and it lacks nerve sensations.
There are different types of ostomies, including colostomies, ileostomies, and urostomies:

Area of Science:

  • Palliative Care Research
  • Healthcare Professional Collaboration
  • Clinical Practice Priorities

Background:

  • Palliative care research requires input from diverse clinical disciplines to identify relevant priorities.
  • Previous research has not comprehensively synthesized multi-professional perspectives on palliative care research needs.
  • Establishing research priorities is crucial for advancing evidence-based palliative care practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine clinical research priorities in palliative care.
  • To identify areas where specific professional groups can lead research initiatives.
  • To explore consensus and divergence in research priorities across different healthcare disciplines.

Main Methods:

  • A Delphi technique survey was administered to 1304 healthcare professionals, including social workers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, chaplains, doctors, and nurses.
  • Three survey rounds were conducted to generate problem statements, rank priority items, and assign research leadership roles.
  • Data analysis focused on identifying top-ranked research priorities and areas of inter-professional agreement.

Main Results:

  • Multi-professional teamwork and symptom management were identified as key research priorities by multiple professional groups.
  • No single research priority was ranked in the top 10 by all six professional groups surveyed.
  • Specific priorities, such as informal carer needs and spiritual care, were highlighted by only one professional group.

Conclusions:

  • While consensus on specific palliative care research priorities is limited across disciplines, multi-professional teamwork and symptom management represent significant areas for collaborative research.
  • Future palliative care research should consider the unique perspectives of different professional groups to ensure comprehensive coverage of patient and caregiver needs.
  • Further investigation into discipline-specific research priorities is warranted to foster targeted advancements in palliative care.
