Abstract
The advance in nursing care for stoma patients is a challenging issue, which will influence the life quality. The quality of life is a major issue in the recovery of stoma patients. The evidence of experimental nursing has not been explored enough. A systematic search and a meta-analysis were performed for the studies of experimental nursing interventions versus routine warming interventions on patients with a stoma. The comparisons between nursing interventions were performed to find which kind of intervention will be superior in improving life quality. After a restricted selection, 10 studies, 460 subjects with experimental nursing intervention, and 478 controls with the routine nursing intervention were enrolled in a variety of causes of the stoma. The focused outcome was the quality of life. The meta-analysis was performed by Review Manager 5.4. Among the stoma patients, the meta-analysis favours the experimental nursing intervention group with higher scores of life quality when compared to the routine nursing intervention group. The meta-analysis results were with positive mean differences, significant tests for overall effect, and significant heterogeneities in the random-effects model. The experimental nursing intervention showed higher positive effects on the quality of life when compared to routine nursing intervention for stoma patients. Experimental nursing intervention might be an option for stoma nursing practitioners to improve stoma care.
