| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to elucidate the current state of lifestyles at home and factors that affect the recovery or maintenance of vital functions of post-colectomy elderly outpatients, and to determine the ideal support for these patients. Results of interview and questionnaire surveys showed that primary disease and operative methods, as well as individual lifestyle histories and personal values, were factors that affected postoperative life. Among these factors, comorbidity, motor function, exercise habit, social roles, hobbies, motivation, facing illness and aging, and support status were the most common. The results of this study suggest the importance of effective information distribution and counseling for post-colectomy community-dwelling elderly patients.
