Constipationis not a sign which canbe evaluated scientifically.
It is merelya symptom !

Constipation
ü2nd most common GI symptom
ü3% of population (2 - 34%)
ü1% have intractable symptoms

Constipation
üA subjective term reported by patientswhen their bowel habit is perceived to beabnormal
üObjective criteria now exist
“ Constipation has a double meaning; a person complaining of thissymptom may mean that defaecation is difficult, that it is infrequent,or both “( Moore-Gillon Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1984)

Epidemiology and Cost
• Constipation is more common in– Women– > 65 years– Poor socio-economic background
• Most common treatment is laxatives– 3 million people (USA)– > $725 million

Treatment: functional constipation
Treatment focussed on underlying cause....
– Combination of softener and stimulant– High fibre for slow transit– Suppositories for evacuatory dysfunction– Colonic Irrigation
– Bowel retraining / Biofeedback– Surgery

Patients are re-educated, and learnhow to co-ordinate the activity of thepelvic floor and anal sphincters

Furthermore, we achieved unsatisfactory functional resultsas assessed by objective and validated scoring systems. Inconclusion this study demonstrates a devastating outcomeafter surgery for STC. We cannot recommendcolectomy for this indication.

Conclusions: In functional boweldisorders short-term sacral nervestimulation seems to be a usefuldiagnostic tool to assess patients for aminor invasive therapy alternative toconventional surgical procedure.

Sacral Nerve StimulationSacral nerve stimulation is a lessinvasive and reversible procedurethat enables directneuromodulation of the pelvicfloor and hindgut. It has been usedsuccessfully in the treatment ofurologic disorders and fecalincontinence, and some of thesepatients with concurrentconstipation have also notedimproved stool frequency andrectal evacuation

In conclusion, SNS is aneffective treatment for patientswith intractable constipationunresponsive to conservativetreatments. Benefit ismaintained, at least in themedium term. Furtherrandomized trial data are nowawaited.

Indications– not NICE approved
– Largest study to date, Kamm et al 2010, Gut.
– improvement in n° of defecations, straining, incomplete emptying and abdominal pain
– used in slow transit BUT NO obst defecation
– difficult to achieve complete resolution of symptoms

Questions about colorectal transit time: HOW I DO
The ingestion of DIFFERENT(3 types) radiopaque markerseach day at the same time for 3sequential days.
An abdominal x-ray is taken atthe same time on the fourth dayof the study and then at 3-dayintervals (7th day, 10th day,etc)
![Page 21: la neuromodulazione sacrale nel trattamento della stipsi · Sacral Nerve Stimulation Sacral nerve stimulation is a less invasive and reversible procedure that enables direct neuromodulation](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022012921/5c65754609d3f2a86e8ca92c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Questions about colorectal transit time: HOW I DO
colonic transit is normalin adults if <20% of themarkers can be seen onthe x-ray at 7th day

With WMC, it eliminates the use of multiple tests todiagnose the more generalized form of dysmotility. Inaddition, WMC leads to new diagnoses and allowssignificant change in management decisions inmore than half of cases including the need forcolectomy.

wireless motility capsule
The capsule does not require anyradiation and the methodology has beenstandardized both for study performanceand study interpretation when comparedto other techniques.
Colonic transit time is defined as the timebetween cecal entry of capsule and its exitfrom the body

Positive Results
Sacral nerve modulation has been shown to induce pancolonicpropagating pressure waves, even if the precise mechanicsremain undefined
The preliminary diagnostic assessment and thepathophysiological interpretation of the results require thegreatest care.
Significant differences can be found in theclinical effectiveness of SNS in differentsubsets of constipated patients, with thoseaffected by slow transit constipation beingmost responsive

Subtypes of constipation: sorting out the confusion

ü 50% of patients with slow-transitconstipation have irritable bowelsyndrome,
ü 50% of patients with pelvic floordyssynergia also found to have slow transit.

HOW TO DO the study of gastrointestinalsensory-motor function, including the complexcentral nervous system interaction ?
the basic pathophysiology of chronic constipation remains unclear.

It may work.
