Summary

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of NLP techniques on stoma compliance and quality of life in patients with stoma. The study will be conducted using a prospective randomized controlled single-blind clinical trial model. The research will consist of patients with temporary or permanent colostomy/ileostomy, who are hospitalized in Mersin City Training and Research Hospital. Research data will be obtained with demographic questionnaire, Adjustment Scale for Individuals with Ostomy and Stoma Quality of Life Scale. Analysis of the study data will be done through the IBM SPSS Statistics 26 package program. While evaluating the study data, frequencies (number, percentage) for categorical variables and descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) for numerical variables will be given. Statistical significance in the analyzes will be interpreted at the 0.05 level.

Detailed description

Stomas are formed in order to provide stool output after surgery in cases that require removal of the bowel due to disease or trauma (Harputlu \& Özsoy, 2016). Stoma surgery is a vital surgical intervention. However, the individual may have to cope with many problems that may negatively affect the adaptation process and quality of life in terms of living with a stoma. The literature is that despite the developing stoma products and professional nurse educators, the problems related to stoma compliance and quality of life of the patients continue, and complications affecting coping with these processes are seen at different rates. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of NLP techniques on stoma compliance and quality of life in patients with stoma. The study will be conducted using a prospective randomized controlled single-blind clinical trial model. The study will consist of patients with temporary or permanent colostomy/ileostomy, who are hospitalized in Mersin City Training and Research Hospital. Research data will be obtained with demographic questionnaire, Adjustment Scale for Individuals with Ostomy and Stoma Quality of Life Scale. Analysis of the study data will be done through the IBM SPSS Statistics 26 package program. While evaluating the study data, frequencies (number, percentage) for categorical variables and descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) for numerical variables will be given. The normality assumptions of the numerical variables according to the groups were examined with the Kolmogorov Smirnov test of normality and it was observed that the variables were normally distributed. For this reason, parametric statistical methods will be used in the study. Relationships between two independent categorical variables were interpreted by Chi-square analysis. The differences between the two independent groups were examined using the Independent Sample T Test. The differences between the two dependent numerical variables will be examined with Dependent Sample T. Statistical significance in the analyzes will be interpreted at the 0.05 level.

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Neuro-Linguistic Programming Techniques	The new behavior creation technique of NLP is based on the argument that the imagination process and reality are recorded in the same way in the brain. Using the Participant's eye movements and imagination . He will be asked to imagine himself while caring for the stoma. participient will then be asked to re-enact the process with the correct stages of stoma care and the jurals that must be adhered to in order to successfully care for it. Questions will be asked about where he can find the support he needs to carry out this process successfully. At the end of this whole process, he will be expected to construct what life is like with a stoma.The technique will be applied to the patient once and will be instructed to remember this successful process every time he or she feels distressed about the stoma. At the end of 6 months, the quality of life and compliance will be evaluated by asking the scale questions again.
