Paula Method of Exercises in Patients With LARS Syndrome:Randomized Controlled Trial

Low Anterior Resection Syndrome Clinical Trial

Official title:
Use of the Paula Method of Muscle Exercises Among Patients With Low Anterior Resection Syndrome After Sphincter-sparing Rectal Resection Using an Integrative Approach

Clinical Trial Summary

Sphincter sparing rectal resection surgery, either total mesorectal excision (TME) with a temporary loop ileostomy or partial mesorectal excision (PME), is the mainstay of rectal cancer treatment , however, these treatments are associated with the development of Low anterior resection syndrome (LARS). This syndrome is characterized by a constellation of symptoms such as fecal frequency, urgency and clustering of bowel movements and can lead to fecal and flatus incontinence. There is no gold standard therapy designed to treat the root cause of the problems associated with LARS. Paula Method of exercises, based on the theory that the body has the natural ability to self-heal and that all sphincter muscles in the body affect one another other and thus, exercising one healthy region can positively impact another. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of the Paula Method of exercises in patients post sphincter sparing rectal resection surgery with LARS Syndrome.
