Constipation is the third most common symptom in patients undergoing chemotherapy, with an incidence rate ranging from 31% to 90%. Despite its high prevalence and adverse effects on patients, constipation is often not reported by patients and is not frequently monitored by nurses, resulting in delays in treatment and care. …
This prospective, open-labelled, longitudinal, controlled study aims to evaluate the suitability of Intermittent Colonic Exoperistalsis (ICE) treatment for adults with refractory chronic constipation who are awaiting trans-anal irrigation (TAI). The ICE treatment will be applied using the MOWOOT device (USMIMA). The study involves two treatment groups: an experimental group receiving …
