Effects of Imagery Therapy vs Progressive Muscle Relaxation Therapy on Patients With Functional Abdominal Bloating

Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effects of Imagery Treatments vs Progressive Muscle Relaxation Therapy in Terms of Clinical, Psychological and Physiological Aspects Among Patients With Functional Abdominal Bloating

Clinical Trial Summary

65% of the general population reported experiencing moderate to severe bloating symptoms. Bloating could be disturbing to patients and frustrating to the physicians as an effective treatment is still lacking. Guided Imagery (GI) involves the structured visualisation of mental images with somatic sensory; whereas Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) focuses on tightening and relaxing the body's specific muscle groups. The development and validation of GI or PMR interventions to treat patients with functional abdominal bloating are relatively novel.

Clinical Trial Description

The baseline variables of the patient would be obtained at the outpatient Gastrointestinal Medical clinic. A thorough general clinical interview that encompasses medical and psychological history, discussion of the nature and severity of the current symptoms, and review of past treatments and conclusions of any medical evaluation and tests. This is to make sure that the patients have been comprehensively evaluated medically and to rule out other causes of abdominal bloating before reaching a firm diagnosis of functional abdominal bloating as suggested in ROME IV Criteria. Questionnaires will be given out and patients were asked to fill it up on the spot. Electrical activity and abdominal circumference would be measured at an enclosed space with appropriate privacy and accompanied by a chaperone. ;
