Resting and Squeeze Anal Pull‐Through Assessments by Fecobionics Demonstrate Weak Anal Sphincters in Patients With Fecal Incontinence
Key Points
The aim is to evaluate anal sphincter function in patients with fecal incontinence using the Fecobionics device.
Used the Fecobionics device to measure squeeze pressures during anal pull-through assessments.
Compared pressures between fecal incontinence patients and normal subjects.
Examined associations between squeeze pressures and different fecal incontinence subgroups.
Patients with fecal incontinence exhibited significantly lower squeeze pressures compared to normal subjects.
Strong associations observed between squeeze pressures and specific fecal incontinence subgroups.
Abstract
Fecobionics device showed lower squeeze pressures in FI patients compared to NS during anal pull-through procedure and strong associations between these pressures and FI subgroups.
