Brief Summary:
This study will facilitate a better understanding of the overall experience of our rectal cancer survivors after Low Anterior Resection for rectal cancer Studies have demonstrated that the development of bowel and genitourinary dysfunction after this procedure is very distressing to patients and can have a significant impact on overall quality of life By providing interventions that can be performed at home investigator may alleviate these symptoms in hopes of improving the experience of patients undergoing Low Anterior Resection By acknowledging these potentially debilitating symptoms in a systematic way the investigator hopes to reinforce the importance of symptom management in the survivorship phase after treatment has been completed and ultimately facilitate an individuals return to routine activities
Detailed Description:
Subjects will be recruited from patients presenting to the surgical oncology clinic at Fox Chase Cancer Center These patients will have already undergone Low Anterior Resection with a diverting stoma colostomy or ileostomy and will be planning on undergoing reversal of their stoma in the near future Subjects will be recruited over a period of 1 year Such clinic patients medical records will be reviewed to determine whether they are possible candidates for inclusion in the study They will be identified based on their diagnosis of either Stage II or III rectal cancer as stated in prior clinic notes pathology reports or radiologic image reports Participants must have previously undergone Low Anterior Resection with a diverting stoma and the surgical plan must be for them to undergo ostomy reversal They will be approached during a clinic visit by either a co-investigator or a member of the surgery team fellow or surgeon or a research coordinator delegate and asked to participate in the research study They will be given a document for informed consent that will describe the study and potential risks and benefits to the patient The investigators plan to enroll 10 patients at Fox Chase Cancer Center Subjects will receive no monetary compensation
