Transcutaneous Posterior Nerve Stimulation inTreatment of Fecal Incontience

Fecal Incontinence Clinical Trial

Official title:
Long Term Outcome of Transcutaneous Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation in Treatment of Functional Non-Retentive Fecal Incontinence

Clinical Trial Summary

Shafik and colleagues were the first to report the use of posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) for FI, and they documented improved continence after 4 weeks course. Subsequent studies documented percutaneous and transcutaneous PTNS as effective methods for treatment of FI, with a short term reduction in incontinence episode by 50-80 %. Percutaneous PTNS (PPTNS) showed a greater effect than transcutaneous PTNS (TPTNS) and this may be assumed due to the presence of the stimulating electrode very close to the posterior tibial nerve. However, TPTNS is more preferable to percutaneous PTNS because of the concern about the insertion of a needle may result in stimulation that is sufficient to produce a neuromodulatory effect.

Clinical Trial Description

Treatment of FNRFI is often difficult and requires prolonged therapies with unexpected responses and frequent relapses. The corner-stones in treatment of FNRFI are education, positive motivation, and toilet training. Preparation of children and their parents for a long-lasting treatment is mandatory with the expectation of many ups and downs. The main goal is to have regular bowel movements and normal continence and this can be achieved by teaching the child the importance of regular toilet use and avoid urges.

Many previous studies, reported the short term effect of TPTNS in treatment of FNRFI. However, there are sufficient studies evaluating the long term effect of TPNS and this has motivated the authors to conduct of this study The aim of this study is to evaluate the Long term outcome and quality of life in children with Functional non-retentive fecal incontinence and received Bilateral Transcutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation therapy. ;
