Summary
This study tested whether mobile-based education can improve self-care, quality of life, and reduce complications in people with an intestinal stoma. 62 patients received training via their phone before and after surgery. Researchers measured outcomes like stoma care skills, quality of life, and complication severity. The goal was to see if this approach helps patients manage their stoma independently and avoid problems.
