Active clinical trials for "Fecal Incontinence"

The objectives of this work are: 1/to estimate the frequency of a positive glucose breath test in favour of a small intestinal bacterial overgrowth in a population of patients consulting for gaz incontinence by comparison to a population of control subjects; 2/to estimate versus a conventional treatment the efficiency of an antibiotic treatment; in case of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth diagnosed by the glucose breath test, to improve gaz incontinence

To assess the post-market clinical outcomes with use of the Axonics Sacral Neuromodulation System(s).

Females who have been sexually abused anally, have a disturbed anorectal motility. They have an increased resting pressure at the lower part of the anal canal. When their rectum is suddenly distended, they tend not to have an initially increased pressure in the anal canal, and the recto-anal inhibitory reflex is markedly decreased amplitude which is caused by reflex contraction of the pelvic floor during the relaxation of the internal anal sphincter.

The purpose of this study is to try to treat bowel movement (BM) accidents differently with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The study will use over-the-counter (OTC) medications to evoke predictable bowel movements. This will make it possible for investigators to use certain strategies to reward BMs in the toilet. Independence will be increased by fading out the use of medications. The investigators will also train caregivers to implement the procedures.

Current study aims to analyze the outcomes of j-pouch and side-to-end anastomosis in rectal cancer patients treated with laparoscopic hand-assisted low anterior resection

Investigators will conduct a single-arm pre-post intervention pilot study in 46 older women with Fecal Incontinence (FI), also known as Accidental Bowel Leakage (ABL). FI symptoms and stool metabolites will be measured at baseline. Intervention with the Diet Modification Program (DMP) will be administered. FI symptoms and stool metabolites will be measured after 6weeks of the intervention.

The study purpose is to gain experience with the TOPAS system, a minimally- invasively delivered self-fixating mesh for the treatment of pelvic floor weakness in women with symptoms of moderate fecal incontinence

The objective of this Field Evaluation is to assess usage and satisfaction associated with the Hill-Rom Incontinence Management System.

This study compares standard versus mnemonic counseling for the treatment of fecal incontinence. A mnemonic is a word or rhyme used to aid memory. Our hypothesis is that women randomised to mnemonic counseling will higher recall of treatments, satisfaction with the physician visit and greater improvement in their quality of life when compared to women who received standard counseling.

People who do not have adequate amounts of vitamin D develop weakness of leg and arm muscles. This study will determine if vitamin D supplementation benefits muscle functions important for swallowing, bladder and bowel function.
