What is being measured

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

  1. Change in IBS Severity Scoring System from Baseline to Week 12

    The IBS Severity Scoring System (IBS-SSS) is a validated, 5-item tool for measuring the severity of IBS symptoms in adults with IBS. The survey asks respondents to rate the severity and frequency of their abdominal pain, severity of abdominal distension, stool frequency and consistency, satisfaction with their bowel habits, and interference of IBS with life in general in the last 10 days using a 100-point visual analogue scale. Scores range from 0 to 500 with higher scores indicating more severe IBS symptoms. Mean score changes of 50 points or more over a 3-month period are predictive of a clinically significant improvement

    Measured: 12 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subject's Global Assessment of Relief at Week 12

    The SGA will be completed by participants at the end of treatment (Week 12). Participants rate their relief from IBS symptoms on a scale of 1 (completely relieved) to 5 (worse). Participants scoring from 1 to 3 are considered responders and those scoring 4-5 are considered non-responders.

    Measured: 12 Weeks

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?
