Summary
A single preoperative video education session significantly improved ostomy patient self-care knowledge and proficiency. This intervention also reduced anxiety, depression, and ostomy complications, leading to shorter hospital stays.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Surgical Nursing
- Patient Outcomes
Background:
- Ostomy surgery requires significant patient self-care post-discharge.
- Traditional ostomy education often occurs postoperatively, potentially limiting patient preparedness.
- Optimizing preoperative education is crucial for improving patient adaptation and outcomes.
Purpose of the Study:
- To compare the effectiveness of a 45-minute preoperative video-based ostomy education session against traditional postoperative education.
- To evaluate the impact on ostomy self-care knowledge, proficiency, psychological well-being, and clinical outcomes.
Main Methods:
- A randomized controlled trial involving 41 patients undergoing ostomy surgery.
- Intervention group: 45-minute preoperative video education plus stoma site marking and postoperative education.
- Control group: Stoma site marking and three postoperative education sessions.
Main Results:
- The intervention group demonstrated significantly higher self-care knowledge and proficiency scores.
- Preoperative video education led to reduced anxiety and depression levels.
- Patients receiving preoperative education experienced shorter hospital stays and fewer ostomy-related complications.
Conclusions:
- A single 45-minute preoperative video-based ostomy education session is effective in enhancing patient self-care.
- This educational approach improves psychological well-being and reduces surgical complications.
- Preoperative video education represents a valuable tool for ostomy patient management.

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:

An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:
