Abstract

 This study describes the current status of peer support among patients and examines the relationship between peer support and patients' mental health. Self-reported questionnaires were distributed to 862 patients who were members of the Japan Ostomy Association. Responses from 499 of these patients were analyzed.

 Analysis of the questionnaire responses indicated that peer support among patients was categorized according to the following 3 factors: “giving support,” “receiving emotional support,” and “receiving informational support.” Many patients' responses identified the following contents of peer support: ‘recognition of the role of peer supporter,’ ‘encouragement to fight against the disease,’ ‘maintenance of an objective perception of their medical condition,’ and ‘empathy.’ Multiple regression analysis revealed that patients with high peer support were less depressed, more satisfied, perceived that their existence has meaning, and felt motivated.
