Aim The impact of a stoma on the health related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients is irrespective of faith. Muslim patients report lower quality of life and spiritual well‐being following stoma surgery as compared to others. This critical review aims to improve awareness of Islamic practices and HRQoL outcomes in this cohort of patients amongst healthcare professionals. Method An extensive non‐systematic search of EMBASE, MEDLINE and Google Scholar was performed for original research articles pertaining to health related quality of life (HRQoL), stoma care and impact on religious practice in Muslim patients. A narrative synthesis of extracted data was performed and presented using basic thematic analysis. Results The findings from the 10 original articles, including 954 participants, were identified. Perceptions of cleanliness emerged as a concern to Muslim patients with stomas as it is core to the performance of prayer. Muslim patients with stomas are known to avoid or reduce participation in prayers due to perceived inferior hygiene and fear of leakage. The consensus opinion from Islamic scholars is that they can pray normally, attend mosque and perform the Hajj pilgrimage. Stoma patients may fast in the holy month of Ramadan provided it is medically safe. Evidence suggests religion‐specific counselling can reduce the detrimental effect on HRQoL of Muslim patients following stoma‐forming surgery and increases engagement in social aspects of life. Conclusions It is important for patients, family members and healthcare professionals to understand the practical and religious implications of stomas on these patients for appropriate guidance and counselling.

Illness perceptions and coping were found to mediate anxiety and depression. The results confirm that how individuals perceive their illness and what coping strategies they engage in impacts their psychological well-being. Study findings support the need for designing targeting psychological interventions based on individual illness perceptions and self-efficacy rather than exclusively focusing on coping strategies in patients with a stoma.

Background and Aim: Ostomy is a radical treatment that is sometimes required due to severe inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colorectal cancer (CRC), and so on. Around 8000 people in New Zealand live with stoma bags. We studied factors associated with poor quality of life (QoL) in ostomy patients to improve patient care. Methods: Eligible adult patients identified through the Southern District Health Board database were invited to participate. The survey consisted of the general stoma QoL, IBD, CRC QoL, and dietary and lifestyle questionnaires. Results: Response rate was 54.5% (n = 241/448). Study participants were a mean (SD) 70.9 (14.2) years old, 60.6% were male, and 89.5% were New Zealand European; 52.5% of the study participants had a colostomy, and 56.4 and 22.4% received their stoma due to CRC and IBD, respectively. Median (first-third interquartile range) duration since ostomy for overall study sample was 6.9 (3.3-15.1) years. Mean (SD) Stoma-QoL score for all the patients was 60.3 (10.8) points (scale 20-80). Stomaunderlying disease (P = 0.28) and type of stoma (P = 0.60) were not associated with Stoma-QoL scores. Older adults had higher Stoma-QoL, IBD questionnaire and QLQ-C30 quality-of-life scores; 73.1% received dietary recommendations for the stoma, And 56.4% changed their diet, 51.4% found it easy to adhere to dietary recommendations, and 9.2% found it quite/very difficult. Conclusion: This study found high-quality life scores in postostomy patients and no significant association between the underlying disease, time since ostomy, level of comorbidities, and how the appliance worked, which highlight the multifactorial nature of the quality of life concept and difficulties measuring it.
