Abstract
Abstract: Phenomenology Study: Psychological Experiences of DFU (Diabetic Foot Ulcer) Patients Following Amputation
Background: DFU patients often face problems due to the loss of limbs after treatment, patients report experiencing depression, and feeling helpless when they try to recover after amputation which has an impact on the patient's well-being. Methods: This study uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. The participants in this study were seven people who were DFU patients who had undergone amputation at 3 hospitals in the city of Padang, namely M. Djamil Hospital Padang, Ibnu Sina Hospital, and Reksodiwiryo RST, and one of the Padang Wound and Stoma Treatment Centers. Results: The results of data analysis produced three themes, namely emotional impact, impaired body image, low self-esteem, and self-defeat to loss. Conclusion: This study shows that lower extremity amputation has a psychological impact related to changes that occur after amputation. Participants described this by expressing anxiety, fear, anger, regret, body image disturbance, and surprise with their condition after living well-being so that it impacted their welfare.
