Managing Childhood Abdominal Pain

Pediatric Abdominal Pain

Functional abdominal pain (FAP) is a common complaint of childhood, associated with considerable health care costs, disruption of normal activity, emotional distress, and long-term health effects. The study will test a treatment approach which, if successful, would substantially change the treatment for FAP and potentially for a wide range of childhood medical problems where parental responses to symptoms contribute to these adverse effects. The study would also provide a model which would be much more accessible than traditional face-to-face therapies to a broader range of families in need than are currently served.

Problem Solving Skills Training For Parent Caregivers of Youth With Chronic Pain

Chronic PainAbdominal Pain1 more

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of problem-solving skills training (PSST) to reduce distress and increase coping abilities among parents of youth with chronic pain. We hypothesize that parents will complete the PSST intervention and will find it to be an acceptable and satisfactory treatment. We also hypothesize that parents who receive PSST will have less distress and better coping skills than parents who receive standard care, and that children of parents who receive PSST will have better physical and emotional functioning than children of parents who receive standard care.

Is Chronic Abdominal Pain in Pediatric Patients Due to Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?

Chronic Abdominal PainSmall Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth

Chronic abdominal pain (CAP) is an extremely pervasive childhood condition and, like IBS in adults, it is one of the functional bowel disorders without a clear framework of understanding or an effective treatment. However, new research suggests that small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) may be the unifying pathophysiology that explains the variety of symptoms experienced by patients with IBS. As CAP in children is believed to be a precursor to IBS in adults, we hypothesize that children with this disorder have a significantly greater prevalence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) than normal, healthy children, and that eradication of bacterial overgrowth with antibiotics will reduce symptoms of chronic abdominal pain in children with this condition. To prove this, we will first aim to determine the prevalence of SIBO in both healthy children and those with CAP. We will do this by performing a lactulose breath hydrogen test, the gold standard for the noninvasive measurement of SIBO, on 40 healthy controls and 80 subjects with CAP. We will then assess whether eradication of SIBO with antibiotics will reduce symptoms of chronic abdominal pain in children with this condition. To do this we will randomize, in a double-blinded fashion, the 80 CAP patients to receive a 10-day course of either the antibiotic Rifaximin or a placebo. After completion of the treatment we will evaluate all these patients for eradication of bacterial overgrowth by repeating a lactulose breath hydrogen test. We will also assess for symptom improvement by re-administering questionnaires.

Evaluation of S-adenosyl Methionine (SAM-e) for Recurrent Abdominal Pain in Children

Abdominal Pain

This pilot study will investigate the efficacy of SAM-e for the treatment of recurrent abdominal pain in children. This will be an open-labeled study and all participants will receive SAM-e therapy. Given that SAM-e has been demonstrated to improve symptoms of depression and pain with minimal side effects as compared to other antidepressant therapy, we hypothesize that SAM-e will reduce pain symptoms among children with recurrent abdominal pain.

Internet Intervention for Adolescents With Chronic Pain

Chronic PainAbdominal Pain1 more

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a web-based (i.e., internet) behavioral program to reduce pain and improve functioning in children and adolescents with chronic pain. We hypothesize that children and adolescents in families that receive the web-based behavioral program will report reduced pain levels and improved daily functioning compared to children and their parents who receive online patient education.
