  1. CONSTIPATION Dr. M Baghbanian Gastroenterologist Shaheed Sadoughi university of medical scinces Yazd - 2012

  2. What is the normal defication frequency?2 _ 3 time/week

  3. introduction • Dry & hard stool • Evacuation is difficult & infrequent • Excessive straining (dyschezia) • 1/8 of people taking laxatives at least once each month. • Pathophysiology: • Slow transit • Functional outlet obstruction

  4. INTRODUCTION • Constipation is the most common digestive complaint in the general population. • Medication costs of many hundreds of million dollars.

  5. Prevalence of constipation • 20 percent • 2-27% of the population depending in part upon the criteria used to define it.

  6. Prevalence of chronic functional constipation in IRAN 32.9 (ROME II-defined ) 9.6 % ( self-reported ). Adibi p and et al isfahan Alzahra.H.(Dig Dis Sci 2007) In female constipation ( passage of stools Two times per week or less ) • 9.6 % in the 40-69 year • 20.5 % in the over 70- year Massarat and et al DDRC Shariati .H ( Archive of Iranian Medicine Vol 5 No 2 ,2002 )

  7. Secondary : Endo. & metabolic Neurologic dis. Rectoanal dis. Iatrogenic dis. Dietary factors Idiopathic dis. Colonic inertia Functional outlet obstruction Classification & causes

  8. Should be considered only after other diseases (systemic or organic have been excluded. Functional constipation

  9. Slow-transit Constipation Pelvic floor dyssynergia IBS with constipation Chronic Functional Constipation Subtypes Slow transit 47 %

  10. Obstructed defecation Dyssynergia or Anismus • paradoxical contraction or inadequate relaxation of the pelvic Floor muscles during attempted defecation.

  11. Evaluation & management • History & rectal exam • fibre therapy(unless alarm symptoms). • 20-40 gr/day dietary fibre • 10-20 gr/day psyllium • Sigmoidoscopy,barium enema, • defaecography,anal manometry, • colon marker transit study

  12. Balloon 50 ml Balloon Syringe 100 ml 3- 5” 1- 2” Physiologic tests of Colonic motor function Syringe

  13. Summery Chronic Constipation Diagnostic strategy for constipation Supplemental trial fiber 25 g for 2 weeks 5 - day Colonic transit Anorectal manometry with Balloon expultion test Normal transit Normal Pelvic floor function Prolonged transit Normal pelvic floor function Normal transit Abnormal pelvic Floor function Abdominal pain + Abdominal pain - Pelvic Floor dyssynergia IBS with Constipation Functional Constipation Slow-transit Constipation

  14. Bulking or hydrophilic Osmotic agents Ions Disaccharides,sugar Glycerin Polyethylen glycol Lubricating agent Neuromuscular agents Cholinergic agonists 5-HT4 agonists Prostaglandin agonist Colchicine Stimulant laxatives Surface-active agents Diphenylmethane drivat. Ricinoleic acid Anthraquinones Classification ofdrugs:

  15. Guidelines • Mild complaints • Dietary fibre • Medicinal fibre • Severe or acute constipation • Osmotic agents • Stimulant laxatives • More chronic: • larger doses of osmotic agents • Misoprostol,bethanechol,colchicin

  16. Guidelines Cont. Dyschezia : • Moderate dose of osmotic laxatives • Mineral oil • Enema • If dyschezia is the major problem,fibre should be avoided .

  17. Constipation in pregnancy • Fibre • Lactulose • Castor oil may initiate premature labour.

  18. Outlet obstruction constipation • Biofeedback therapy • Surgery • Pharmacological therapy • Comb.(biofeedback+osmotic agents) • Comb.NSAIDs+ skeletal muscle relax. • Injection of botulinum toxin into the pelvic floor or anal sphincter

  19. surgery • Intrarectal intussusception • Entrocele • Refractory mechanical or functional outlet problems(fecal diversion) • Refractory slow-transit (subtotal colectomy+ileorectal anastomosis) • Patients with psychological problems do not respond to surgery
