NCT ID: NCT04710433 Completed - Clinical trials for Anorectal Malformations

Non-invasive Sacral Nerve Stimulation in Children and Adolescents With Chronic Constipation

Start date: January 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of additional neuromodulation for treatment of chronic constipation in pediatric patients

NCT ID: NCT04652024 Completed - Fecal Incontinence Clinical Trials

Effect of Anorectal Biofeedback on Encopresis in School Aged Girls After Sexual Assault

Start date: November 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT04380571 Completed - Fecal Incontinence Clinical Trials

Biofeedback Vs Electrical Stimulation in Treatment of Fecal Incontinence

Start date: March 4, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Fecal incontinence is one of the most psychological frustrating problems. It occurs in children due to many causes. There is a wide range of non-invasive therapeutic approaches like Kegel exercise, Biofeedback, and posterior tibial nerve stimulation. However, up till now, there are no established guidelines for treatment. the objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the early effect of Biofeedback therapy versus bilateral transcutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation (TPNS) as non-invasive methods in the treatment of functional non-retentive fecal incontinence (FNRFI) in children.

NCT ID: NCT03197922 Completed - Clinical trials for Autism Spectrum Disorder

Treatment of Encopresis in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders

Start date: October 25, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study is comparing a multidisciplinary intervention for encopresis (MIE), consisting of both medical and behavioral components to treatment as usual control (TAU). Participants are first screened by a pediatric gastroenterologist and assessed and treated for any constipation or other potential medical complications. Following this, caregivers collect data on bowel movements and continence during a home baseline lasting no less than 14 days and no more than 21 days. Participants randomly assigned to treatment as usual or the treatment group, and begin attending daily appointments in clinic for 2 weeks. At appointments, the behavior team implements structured sits on the toilet to promote independent bowel movements (BMs). If an independent BM does not occur, the study team will administer a suppository to promote rapid release of the bowels and prompt the child to remain on the toilet following administration. In doing so, continent bowel movements are predictably evoked while the child is on the toilet, allowing for reinforcement with praise and preferred toys/activities. Eventually, suppositories are gradually decreased until the child is having BMs independently. Caregivers are trained to continue implementing the intervention following the clinic-based portion. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate MIE using a large randomized clinical trial (RCT), addressing the Department of Defense Autism Research Program, Area of Interest of Therapies to Alleviate Conditions Co-Occurring with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The researchers will recruit 112 children diagnosed with ASD, randomizing them to two weeks of MIE, or treatment as usual (TAU) consisting of behavioral consultation and medical intervention. This study will evaluate MIE compared to TAU and determine the optimal treatment length.

NCT ID: NCT02383758 Completed - Autistic Disorder Clinical Trials

An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Treatment of Encopresis in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders

Start date: February 1, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT02354820 Completed - Constipation Clinical Trials

Child Health Improvement Through Computer Automation of Constipation Management in Primary Care

CHICA-GI
Start date: February 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This project seeks to expand an existing computerized decision support system used in pediatric primary care. The expanded system will add a module that helps clinicians recognize constipated children and then provides evidence-based reminders for constipation management, as well as automates patient educational materials. The current system is deployed across multiple sites, and the constipation module will be randomized to deployment in different sites. The difference in constipation management and patient outcomes will then be compared between sites receiving the intervention and sites not receiving the intervention over a 12 month period.

NCT ID: NCT00767403 Completed - Encopresis Clinical Trials

Internet Intervention for Childhood Encopresis

Start date: January 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an Internet intervention designed to reduce the behaviors and symptoms of pediatric encopresis.

NCT ID: NCT00067769 Completed - Encopresis Clinical Trials

Internet-based Treatment of Early Childhood Fecal Incontinence

Start date: October 2003
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Encopresis, also known as fecal incontinence, is the voluntary or involuntary passage of stools causing soiling of clothes by a child over 4 years of age. The purpose of this study is to evaluate an Internet intervention for the treatment of encopresis.
