Researchers at Canterbury Christ Church University are looking for adults living with IBD and a stoma to take part in online interviews to share their experiences.
Researchers at Canterbury Christ Church University are looking for people aged 18 - 40, living with IBD and a stoma (either temporary or permanent) to take part in an online interview to discuss their experiences of adjusting to living with a stoma.
For many people getting a stoma may happen during early adulthood and may significantly impact several aspects of their life. However, there is little research about what it’s like to live with a stoma during early adulthood. This study is aiming to explore and understand how adults living with IBD adjust to living with a stoma. The researchers hope that this will improve post-stoma care.
If you take part, a researcher will talk to you online and ask questions about your experiences of living with a stoma. This is expected to take around one hour.
