This review aims to develop an understanding of the psychological experience of body image change in adult stoma patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic review and meta\u2010ethnography was undertaken of primary, qualitative, English\u2010language research focusing on the psychological experience of body image change in adult stoma patients. Eight hundred and forty\u2010three studies were initially obtained from backwards citation chaining and three databases: Medline, CINAHL and PsychINFO.

Three third\u2010order constructs were found across two time phases (immediately after surgery, and living with the stoma): all\u2010consuming shock, visible \u2018otherness\u2019 and fluctuating acceptance. Findings map the trajectory of body image change following stoma formation and identify psychological, social and relational processes associated with continuing distress and adaptation.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review moves beyond documenting body image distress in stoma patients to explain the psychological mechanisms through which it develops and fluctuates over time. Stoma formation can disrupt bodily integrity and identity, with distress maintained through self\u2010scrutiny, shame and perceived social exposure. The mechanisms identified provide clear targets for tailored psychosocial support beginning pre\u2010surgery and continuing through recovery to reduce long\u2010term body image distress and improve health\u2010related quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/bjhp.70113","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,13]],"date-time":"2026-10-13T05:29:59Z","timestamp":1791869399000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The psychological experience of body image change in adult stoma patients: A systematic review and qualitative meta\u2010synthesis"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-4633-320X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Si\u00e2n","family":"Levell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine University of Nottingham, Queen's Medical Centre  Nottingham UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4063-904X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sophie","family":"Buckley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology University of Lincoln  Lincoln UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Baliousis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine University of Nottingham, Queen's Medical Centre  Nottingham UK"},{"name":"School of Psychology University of Lincoln  Lincoln UK"},{"name":"Cancer Psychology Service Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust  Nottingham UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_15_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jocn.15840"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/WON.0b013e3181a1a1dc"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365\u20102354.2012.01360.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/iwj.13018"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1071\u20105754(99)90043\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00737\u2010020\u201001046\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1521\/jscp.2006.25.9.975"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14767430.2020.1734736"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1258\/135581902320432732"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15253\/2175\u20106783.2015000400015"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978\u20100\u201012\u2010384925\u20100.00054\u20107"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/gasn.2015.13.5.18"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_14_1","unstructured":"Crohn's and Colitis UK.
