| Abstract: | Background: Evidence suggests that psychological distress is common among people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) following stoma surgery and is associated with adverse clinical and quality of life outcomes. Despite this, psychological problems are often under-detected and under-treated. The aim of this qualitative study was to identify the barriers and facilitators affecting access to psychological care among young adults with IBD following stoma surgery, from the perspective of both patients and relevant healthcare professionals (HCPs). This study was undertaken within the context of the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK (UK). [Excerpt] |
