Objective:

To explore the effects of remote continuous nursing based on WeChat short videos on the self-nursing ability and adaptation level of patients with prophylactic ileostomy.

Key Findings:
  • The intervention group had significantly higher self-nursing knowledge at discharge, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks post-discharge (P < 0.001).
  • Adaptability to ostomy bags improved significantly in the intervention group at all evaluated time points (P < 0.001).
Interpretation:

Remote continuous nursing via WeChat short videos effectively enhances self-care knowledge and adaptation in patients with prophylactic ileostomy, potentially improving their quality of life.

Limitations:
  • The study was conducted at a single institution, which may limit generalizability.
  • Patient self-reporting may introduce bias in evaluating self-nursing knowledge and adaptability.
Conclusion:

The WeChat-based remote continuous nursing system improves self-nursing mastery and adaptation for patients with prophylactic ileostomy, suggesting a valuable tool for enhancing post-discharge care.
