Data gathering tool was a three-part questionnaire (demographic characteristics, spiritual attitude, and quality of life in ostomy patients).

Results: According to the results, the relation of income and the duration of ostomy with the quality of life of the patients and also between the type of ostomy and the total score of quality of life and patients’ spiritual attitude were statistically significant (p < 0.05).
