The authors have routinely conducted a nutrition education program for patients who underwent gastric cancer resection at the times of pre-operation, the initial meal after operation, prior to hospital discharge, at 1 month after discharge, 3 months after discharge, 6 months after discharge, and every 6 months thereafter (continued pre-through post-operative nutrition education program). Patients have been instructed to do the followings: chew their food well, eat slowly, maintain a moderate diet, take appropriate exercise, and have a balanced diet. The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of this nutrition education program on the patient's quality of life by reviewing the results of a questionnaire for the 45 patients who have received the program, and assessing their compliance with the instructed matters according to the background characteristics. Fourteen patients (31.1%) practiced all the instructed matters, and the compliance rate was slightly lower for eating slowly in patients who have a job. Patients who were compliant with the instructed matters became accustomed earlier to postoperative dietary life, suggesting a definite effect of the nutrition education program. Based on the results of the present study, we will continue the program aiming for further enhancement of the patient's quality of life.
