Filter by:Chronic constipation (CC) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) are two conditions difficult to manage because factors affecting dissatisfaction to treatments are misleading. This observational multicentric national study is aimed to assess which factors are related with a clinically significant improvement in patients with CC and IBS-C. Patients will be evaluated at baseline and after every one-month "standard of care" therapy with standardised questionnaires to assess bowel habit and satisfaction to treatments. Somatisation, quality of life, colonic transit time and resting anal pressure will be assessed at baseline.

It is a double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial for advanced cancer patients with constipation. 60 patients will be randomly assigned to have individualized herbal intervention (treatment group) or placebo (control group) in 1:1 ratio. For the treatment group, MaZiRenWan 10g plus HuangQi 20g are chosen as the core prescription. Furthermore, six herbal granules can be added according to the syndrome differentiated for individual participant. Placebo is made from dextrin (76.03%), tea essence (23.61%), gardenin (0.02%), and caramel (0.34%) to achieve color, smell, taste, and texture comparable to the herbal granules. Patients are instructed to dissolve the granules in 150ml of hot water, twice daily for two weeks. The primary end point is the global symptom improvement. Secondary outcome measures include stool frequency, stool form, use of rescue herbal granules, constipation visual analogue scale (CVAS) (0=none to 7=most severe) and individual assessment of constipation related symptoms. For the safety profiles of herbal intervention, the important adverse events reported and clinical laboratory evaluations of liver and renal function are determined.
The Investigator has chosen to study the reconstructive spinal surgery patient population because it is believed that the use of alvimopan in these patients at the University of Virginia will give the scientific community significant insight into the broader applicability of this drug into other surgical populations, the impact of this drug on the perception of pain (as opposed to simply the consumption of opioids), and its impact on total hospital charges, resource utilization, and functional outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to asses the effect of chronic constipation on formation of inguinal hernia using Constipation Severity Scale.
This research study was being done to study the effect of codeine and Naloxegol for 3 days compared to placebo on the movement of food through the colon of healthy individuals. Codeine is a commonly used pain-relieving drug that often causes constipation as an unwanted side effect. Naloxegol is a medication recently approved by the FDA for treatment of constipation induced by Codeine. The hypothesis for this study was that Naloxegol reduces the retardation of small bowel and colonic transit induced by codeine in healthy participants.
