Patients’ experiences in early satiety after total gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a phenomenological study by Salvatore Vaccaro, Matías Eduardo Díaz Crescitelli, Stefano Mastrangelo, Nadia Fornaciari, Elisabetta Reverberi, Silvia Di Leo, Luca Ghirotto

“…Understanding these adaptations is essential for enhancing survivorship care.MethodsWe conducted a qualitative study utilizing a phenomenological approach to gain insights into the lived experiences of gastric cancer patients following total gastrectomy. Semi-structured interviews were analyzed to identify key themes related to eating habits and quality of life.ResultsFour core themes emerged: (1) Ineluctability of bodily transformations—patients experienced significant disruptions to their bodily identity; (2) Feelings of weaning and loss of habits—a sense of mourning for lost routines and pleasures; (3) Redefining habits—the process of adapting to new eating patterns; and (4) Experiencing tentative conviviality—struggles to restore social interactions around meals. …”
