NCT ID: NCT06381193 Completed - Clinical trials for Functional Constipation

Study for the Management of Chronic and Functional Constipation Through the Intake of Probiotics and Prebiotics

Start date: March 3, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if supplementation with prebiotics and/or probiotics can lead to an improvement in symptoms of patients with functional constipation. The main objectives are: - To evaluate the effect of the dietary supplements on the bowel frequency movements in patients with chronic functional constipation, after 8 weeks. - To evaluate the stool consistency after 8 weeks (Bristol scale). - To evaluate the quality of life scale score for patients with Constipation (CVE20 and GSRS scales), after 8 weeks. Participants are randomized into the following groups: - Group A: 20 assigned to probiotic + placebo - Group B: 20 assigned to prebiotic + placebo - Group C: 20 assigned to probiotic + prebiotic - Group D: 20 assigned to the placebo + placebo Participants took 4 units of product per day (2 of each assigned product) for 2 months.

Clinical Implementation of a Pictographic Constipation Action Plan for Children With Functional Constipation

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

Constipation is a common disorder that globally affects 0.7% to 29.6% of children. The majority of these children receive the diagnosis of functional constipation. Functional Constipation can be challenging to diagnose and treat. The ROME IV criteria provides structure in the approach to Functional Constipation by standardizing diagnosis criteria. Functional Constipation should be suspected when a child has at least two symptoms per week for the last month consisting of: two or fewer defecations in the toilet per week, greater than or equal to 1 episode of fecal incontinence per week, history of retentive posturing or excessive volitional stool retention, history of painful or hard bowel movements, presence of a large fecal mass in the rectum, or history of large diameter stools that can obstruct the toilet. Written action plans and similar self-management tools have been associated with improved clinical and patient-reported outcomes for several pediatric chronic disease processes including anaphylaxis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis. These tools have been shown to improve patient/caregiver confidence in disease self-management at home, to increase adherence to pharmacotherapy regimens, and ultimately to enhance patient-centered outcomes. The impact of a Constipation Action Plan on Functional Constipation clinical and patient-related outcomes has not been investigated. The aim of this project was to implement and to evaluate the effectiveness of the Uniformed Services Constipation Action Plan in the management of children with Functional Constipation in a pediatric gastroenterology clinic.

NCT ID: NCT04710654 Completed - Clinical trials for Functional Constipation

Effects of Different Physiotherapy Programs on Functional Constipation

Start date: May 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study compares the effectiveness of a more comprehensive behavioral treatment, physical activity and exercise program, as well as CTM and IF current stimulation approaches at different frequencies on functional constipation symptoms and quality of life, compared to their counterparts in the literature.

NCT ID: NCT04671264 Completed - Clinical trials for Gastrointestinal Disease

Efficacy and Safety of Vibrating Capsule in Patients With Functional Constipation

Start date: November 14, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The safety and efficacy of vibrating capsule (VC) in promoting defecation by mechanical stimulation of the gastrointestinal walls have been elucidated in animal studies and pilot clinical studies. Our study aimed to explore the clinical application of a newly developed smartphone-controlled multi-mode VC in the treatment of functional constipation (FC) on multicentres. Patients referred to gastroenterology outpatient of Changhai Hospital with FC and met the eligible criteria for more than 6 months and with spontaneous complete bowel movement (SCBM) less than 3 times per week within recent 3 weeks were eligible for this study. The study was discussed with patients who satisfied the enrolment criteria and provided written informed consents.

NCT ID: NCT04620317 Completed - Clinical trials for Functional Constipation

Effects of Synbiotics on FC and Other Contributing Factors

Start date: January 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prevalence of functional constipation (FC) was first determined with 15.2% reported. Next, a 16-week randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted to assess the improvement in functional constipation among the respective individuals by using synbiotic supplement. Throughout the intervention, it was reported that significant improvements for defecation frequency, Bristol Stool Form (BSF) scale, and Patients Assessment of Constipation Symptoms (PAC-SYM) scores were reported within synbiotic group (p < 0.001). However, no significant different was reported when compared both groups as placebo group was found to have significant within-group difference too. Placebo effect was suspected in this study.
