  • Bifidobacterium longum 35624Dietary supplement

    Bifidobacterium longum 35624, 1 x 10^9 CFU/capsule, 1 capsule/day over 1 month

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Quality of life assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL).

    Change from baseline of quality of life as assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL, scoring from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better IBS specific quality of life) in IBS patients having different subtypes of transit pattern and different level of symptom severity.

    Measured: Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Quality of life subscores assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL).

    Change from baseline of quality of life subscores as assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL, scoring from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better IBS specific quality of life) in IBS patients having different subtypes of transit pattern and different level of symptom severity.

    Measured: Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment

  2. IBS Symptom Severity

    Change of IBS Symptom Severity assessed with the IBS Severity Scoring System (IBS-SSS, scoring from 0 to 500, with higher scores indicating worse severity of IBS symptoms)

    Measured: Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment

  3. Change of Stool consistency

    Change of stool consistency assessed with the Bristol stool scale. The Bristol Stool Chart classifies stool according to their shape and consistency and assigns a sample a number from 1-7 depending on its characteristics, corresponding to constipation normal or diarrhea.

    Measured: Assessed at baseline, day10, day 20 and day 30

  4. Compliance to the treatment

    Compliance assessed with patient self-report on a diary

    Measured: Assessed after 1 month of treatment

  5. Patient satisfaction

    Patient satisfaction with treatment assessed on a 5-point Likert scale, with proposals ranked in ascending order of satisfaction as 1- Not at all satisfied; 2- Unsatisfied; 3- Somewhat satisfied; 4-Satisfied to 5-Very satisfied

    Measured: Assessed after 1 month of treatment

  6. Patient's overall impression after treatment

    The patient's overall impression of how the product has changed his or her daily activities, symptoms, and quality of life, assessed with the Patients' Global Impression of Change (PGIC) scale. PGIC is a 7-point scale describing patient's rating of overall improvement. Change is rated by patients as "very much improved," "much improved," "minimally improved," "no change," "minimally worse," "much worse," or "very much worse."

    Measured: Assessed after 1 month of treatment

  7. Physician's satisfaction

    Physician satisfaction with the treatment for his/her patient assessed on a 5-point Likert scale, with proposals ranked in ascending order of satisfaction as 1- Not at all satisfied; 2- Unsatisfied; 3- Somewhat satisfied; 4-Satisfied to 5-Very satisfied
