Abstract:

Objective To explore the potential categories of benefit findings in colorectal cancer enterostomy patients, and to analyze the influencing factors of different benefit findings in colorectal cancer enterostomy patients. Method A total of 216 patients with colorectal cancer enterostomy who were hospitalized or outpatients in Qingdao Municipal Hospital from January 2022 to September 2022 were selected as subjects by convenience sampling method. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, the Benefit Finding Rating Scale, the Medical Coping Style Questionnaire, the Perceptive Social Support Inventory, the Revised Life Orientation Test Scale, and the Rumination Rumination Questionnaire. The potential profile analysis method was used to analyze the characteristics of benefit discovery of the research object, and the factors influencing the

potential categories of benefit discovery were discussed by univariate analysis, variance analysis and ordered multiple Logistic regression analysis. Result The benefit findings in colorectal cancer enterostomy patients could be divided into three potential categories: low benefit findings-coping fatigue group (16.7%), moderate benefit findings-lack of exercise group (52.3%) and high benefit findings - healthy and loved group (31.0%). Facing and yielding, family support and other support, optimistic tendency, retirement, and never or almost no communication with health care workers were factors influencing the potential categories of beneficial findings. Conclusion There is significant group heterogeneity in the benefit finding of colorectal cancer enterostomy patients. Medical staff should identify the characteristics and influencing factors of different potential categories of benefits and formulate targeted intervention strategies to improve the level of benefit finding in patients.
