Correlação entre achados manométricos e sintomatologia na incontinência fecal

Abstract: INTRODUÇÃOA incontinência fecal, definida como perda do controle voluntário das fezes 1-4 , é um grande problema social e de higiene. Afeta entre 1 e 15% dos adultos e 1,1 a 1,3% das pessoas com mais de 65 anos, impondo limitações e queda na qualidade de vida 1,2 . Sua real prevalência é provavelmente subestimada, já que a abordagem do sintoma é dificultada pelo constrangimento que tal afecção acarreta 4-6 . Dentre os mais variados graus de incontinência fecal, o soiling (escape de material fecal pelo ânus … Show more

“…Various complementary exams are currently used to help in understanding the etiology, detection and classification of FI, such as endoanal ultrasound, pudendal nerve latency time, perineometry and anorectal manometry (AM), this last test being one of the most used (3,(11)(12)(13)(14) . The physical parameters related to the mechanism of defecation, such as presence or absence of the inhibitory rectoanal reflex, resting pressure, maximum voluntary contraction pressure (MVCP) and support capacity of voluntary squeeze (CS) are analyzed through the use of this diagnostic method.…”
