About this study

The purpose of this study is to stablish a correlation between fecal incontinence severity scales (Wexner \& St. Mark's) and manometric values obtained using the Anopress® portable manometry and values obtained using endoanal ultrasound in women with fecal incontinence.

Read the detailed description

The Anopress® portable anal manometry will be used to measure the pressures of the anal canal in different phases: rest, squeeze, strain and endurance.

All female patients referred with the diagnosis of fecal incontinence giving written informed consent will undergo a endoanal portable manometry at our outpatients clinics. They will be asked to fill out the severity questionaries (Sant Mark's and Wexner). All data will be collected for analysis.

An endoanal ultrasound will be performed in all patients to assess the sphincter integrity.

What is being measured

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

  1. Stablish a correlation between Wexner fecal incontinence severity scales and manometric values obtained using the Anopress® portable manometry in women with fecal incontinence

    Spearman and Pearson correlation will be used to assess correlations between values

    Measured: During the procedure

  2. Stablish a correlation between St. Mark's fecal incontinence severity scales and manometric values obtained using the Anopress® portable manometry in women with fecal incontinence

    Spearman and Pearson correlation will be used to assess correlations between values

    Measured: During the procedure

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Stablish a correlation between St.Mark's fecal incontinence severity scales and values obtained using endoanal ultrasound in women with fecal incontinence

    Spearman and Pearson correlation will be used to assess correlations between values

    Measured: During the procedure

  2. Stablish a correlation between Wexner fecal incontinence severity scales and values obtained using endoanal ultrasound in women with fecal incontinence

    Spearman and Pearson correlation will be used to assess correlations between values

    Measured: During the procedure

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Stablish a correlation between Wexner fecal incontinence severity scales and manometric values obtained using the Anopress® portable manometry in women with fecal incontinence (time frame: During the procedure). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
