Method: an observational, descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study, with a national sample of 464 patients included in 96 centres, by conducting an initial visit and subsequent control visits at six months and one year after surgery. Results: at one year of follow-up after surgery, there is a better quality of life in those ostomized patients who have undergone regular follow-up, and who attend stomatherapy visits. There is also better quality of life in those patients who are self-sufficient regarding device replacement, those who use one-piece devices, and those with permanent ostomy. At the same time, there is also an improvement in quality of life in those patients who present no problems in their peristomal skin. Conclusions: the assessment of the results obtained leads to the conclusion that, in order to improve the quality of life of ostomized patients, expert practices and professionals are required, who are devoted to the comprehensive care of ostomized patients. This follow-up will prevent the development of stomal complications, and will offer an essential support for these patients.
