Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability as well as the effects of RM-131 on colonic transit, bowel consistency, bowel habits, abdominal pain, and other abdominal symptoms in patients with chronic constipation.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the routine use of methylnaltrexone in the post-operative pediatric spinal fusion patient will decrease the incidence of constipation.
The investigators performed a 8-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Prunus Mume Extract on Improvement of Constipation. The investigators measured Improvement of Constipation parameters , including Colonic Transit Time, number of bowel movement, defecation time, stool type, color and stool amounts per defecation, and monitored their blood pressure.
To elucidate Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) as treatment for IBS. An SCS system with a 4-polar electrode at the T5-8 level is implanted. In a randomized, cross-over study design, active stimulation is compared to a period without stimulation, with an ensuing tailing stimulation period, twice as long. Patients recorded average pain level, pain attacks, number of diarrheas and global quality of life. At the end of the study patients can choose to retain their SCS stimulation system or have it removed. The outcome of the present trial will show whether SCS is a useful treatment of IBS. The long-term follow-up will show the continuous amelioration of SCS over at least six months.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of electro-acupuncture for severe functional constipation compared with sham acupuncture, used as placebo; the secondary purpose is to evaluate the safety and post-treatment effect of electro-acupuncture.
This is a randomized, 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study in patients with IBS-C.
This study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and plasma concentration change of ASP0456 in patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome.
Ano-rectal manometry is indicative in patients with either fecal incontinence or constipation. Recently anorectal 3D- high resolution manometry has been developed. Pressure variations are measured circumferentially along the anal canal. It may allow a better understanding of anorectal disorders by displaying anal pressure asymmetry and it could be useful to assess the functional anatomy of the pelvic floor better than conventional manometry.
To evaluate the different effects of prucalopride and PEG 3350 + electrolytes on colon motor activity in subjects that are chronically constipated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of CB-5945 for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adults taking opioid therapy for chronic non-cancer pain.
