Abstract:Objective:To study the effect of biological feedback treatment of pelvic floor functional constipation.
Methods :A analysis of the clinical data of 46 cases of biological feedback treatment of pelvic floor functional constipation was made.
Results:Among 44 cases who completed the biological feedback treatment, anorectic manometer detection results of 35 cases indicated that the rectum sensitivity threshold and the maximum tolerance capacity and recto-anal inhibitory reflex decreased, compared with those before treatment. Paradoxical contraction of pelvic floor disappeared and normal bowel movement was regained; in cases the symptoms were improved, including times of bowel movement, functional constipation and anorectic distention. The effective rate of biofeedback treatment was 93.2 %. Only 3 cases were ineffective and 2 cases stopped treatment.
Conclusions:The short-term effect of biological feedback treatment for pelvic floor functional comstipation is satisfactory, and has advantages of non-traumatic, low cost and no need for hospital admission.
