This study aims to enhance the physical, psychological, and social aspects of stoma care by providing a self-management service via a smartphone application, and to evaluate the impact of this digital-based application on patients' quality of life.
This study will include patients who have undergone colorectal cancer surgery and received either a colostomy or ileostomy, provided they are comfortable using digital devices like smartphones. Patients will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, receiving stoma care through a smartphone application, or the conventional group, receiving standard outpatient-based care. The intervention group will use a mobile application where patients input their stoma condition, allowing healthcare professionals to monitor and manage their care. The app provides patients with information on diet, physical activity, stoma care, emotional support, and daily living needs. Both groups will be assessed for outcomes at the time of enrollment, and at 1 and 6 months. Outcome measures include stoma-related complications such as peristomal dermatitis, dehydration, acute renal failure, readmission due to stoma-related issues, and quality of life and emotional state assessments using EQ-5D-5L and Stoma Quality of Life questionnaires.

| Evaluation of Anxiety and Depression | The EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D) will be utilized to gauge the general health status. The EQ-5D-5L score consists of two components. One component is the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), which assesses an individual's overall health status on a scale from 0 to 100. A score of 0 represents "the worst imaginable health state," while a score of 100 represents "the best imaginable health state." The other component assesses health status across five dimensions, each rated on a five-level scale ranging from 1 (no problems) to 5 (extreme problems). The combination of these five dimensions represents a specific health state, and a value set specific to each country is used to calculate a score based on this state. This score typically ranges from 0 to 1, with 1 indicating "perfect health." |
