Document preview thumbnail
Preview 2 out of 11 pages

Summary of the bowel problems lesson in the pelvic rehab section given by prof. I.Geraerts of the physiotherapeutic theory course. It is a summary of the powerpoint slides and additional items noted during the lesson. The slides were in English and my own notes are always in Dutch as much as possible. It is therefore a mix of the 2 languages because it is an English-language master. Everything is in dots, so no complete paragraphs

Physioth. Theory: pelvic reëducation:bowel problems
ANORECTAL DYSFUNCTION

 Faecal incontinence
- Complaint of involuntary loss of feces: solid, liquid, flatus
- Passive fecal incontinence: such as soiling without sensation or warning or difficulty wiping clean
 Soiling= veeg in de broek
 Difficulty wiping clean: vb. Kunnen blijven vegen en vuil papier blijven hebben
- Coital fecal incontinence: occuring with vaginal intercourse
 Constipation
- Complaint that bowel movements are infrequent and/or incomplete and/or there is a need for frequent
straining or manual assistance to defecate

1. Prevalence bowel symptoms
 Prevalentie in normale populatie
 Clustering
- Meerdere keren binnen 1h
 Flatus incont.
- vaak menopause
- post.zwangerschap
 incontinence for liquid stool
- vb: prikkelbaar darm syndroom



2. Evaluation of anorectal (dys)function/bowel symptoms
2.1. STOOL DIARY
 Eerste kolom = bristol stool chart
 Tweede kolom = drang
 Derde kolom = soiling
 Hard stool is worse for patient because it should be easier to hold
than liquid

2.2. Bristol stool chart
 Type3-4-5= normaal




2.3. ANAL MANOMETRY
 Evaluation of pressure in the anus and the last part of the rectum, to check for
abnormalities in the anorectum
 Ballon in rectumopblazendruk meten
 Sensoriek gescoord: Een ballon in rectum -> druk verhogen -> gevoel van stoelgang
- Laat pt aangeven wanneer er voor het eerst drang is1st urge defecation
 Wij zouden dit vrij snel aangeven
 Bij ↓sensibiliteit zal dit vele langer duren voor ze het voelen -> vaak is de druk al
zo hoog dat ze het te laat voelen waardoor er incontinentie zal zijn
