“…This should include research to test the suggestion that the best way to manage constipation for people with intellectual disability is an individualized, integrated bowel management programme. In the meantime, services should consider adopting the guidelines for the management of chronic constipation of adults within the community (Emly & Marriott, ) which are available online at https://www.ndti.org.uk/uploads/files/ConstipationGuideline2016.pdf. In addition, a recent report provides information on reasonable adjustments that can be made for managing constipation in people with intellectual disability (Marriott & Emly, ).…”

“…It has been suggested that national clinical guidelines on constipation in adults with intellectual disability could be formulated so that healthcare workers would have an evidence‐based framework to consult (Cockburn‐Wells, ). In one area of England, failure of current practice to effectively manage constipation led a multiprofessional group of healthcare practitioners to review evidence and develop a clinical guideline for the management of chronic constipation of adults within the community including people with intellectual disability (Emly & Rochester, ) and this guideline has recently been updated (Emly & Marriott, ). The guideline recommends a multifaceted treatment strategy involving several healthcare professionals in the holistic management process, with an individualized programme rather than relying solely on prescription of laxatives.…”

“…Our findings showed that an eight-week AA intervention could reduce the subjective sensation of constipation and improve objective stool patterns, as indicated by the BSF scale. Adequate physical activities, and sufficient dietary fiber and fluid intake are recommended for managing constipation (Emly & Marriott, 2017; Reijonen et al, 2022). However, patients with schizophrenia may have low motivation to adhere to physical activity and dietary advice due to their impaired cognitive and motivational characteristics (Arnautovska et al, 2022).…”

Background. Constipation is a common distressing problem in patients with schizophrenia that can cause complications and impair quality of life. Objective. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of applying auricular acupressure (AA) treatment in improving constipation in patients with schizophrenia. Methods. A crossover randomized controlled trial design was performed from April 2022 to December 2023 at four psychiatric rehabilitation care centers. A total of 23 patients with schizophrenia received an AA intervention or usual care according to the designated treatment sequences. Measurements comprised subjective assessment of constipation by the Patient Assessment of Constipation-Symptoms (PAC-SYM) questionnaire, an objective assessment of the stool pattern rated by a Bristol stool form scale, and heart rate variability. A generalized estimating equation model was used for data analyses. Results. After completing an 8-week AA intervention stimulating the Shenmen, San Jiao, Large intestine and Rectum, the AA group exhibited lower scores in the PAC-SYM total score (difference = −12.66, ,0.001), and the subscales: abdominal (difference = −3.36, p < .001), rectal (difference = −3.51, p < .001), and stool (difference = −5.79, p < .001), compared to those receiving usual care. The cases of constipation indicated by type 1 and type 2 of the BSF scale significantly decreased after the 8-week AA intervention. Moreover, the AA group displayed more parasympathetic dominance compared to the usual care group, with a low frequency to high frequency ratio of −1.15. Conclusion. AA is an effective non-pharmacological method for improving subjective constipation symptoms and objective stool pattern in patients with schizophrenia.

“…Immobilisasi jangka panjang akan mengakibatkan gangguan pada pencernaan yaitu kelemahan pada otot abdomen sehingga bisa mengakibatkan konstipasi. 5 Konstipasi jika tidak diatasi akan mengakibatkan komplikasi pada penyakit lainnya seperti canker kolon, hipertensi arterial, impaksi fekal, hemoroid yang akan berujung kepada kematian. 6 Salah satu untuk meminimalkan kejadian konstipasi adalah aktifitas fisik yang cukup.…”

AbstrakKonstipasi merupakan keluhan yang sangat sering pada pasien stroke, jika tidak diatasi akan menyebabkan komplikasi penyakit lainnya. Konstipasi pada pasien stroke bisa disebabkan oleh berbagai faktor, salah satunya diperberat oleh aktivitas fisik yang kurang. Tujuan: Menentukan korelasi aktifitas fisik terhadap konstipasi pada pasien stroke di RS Islam Siti Rahmah Padang. Metode: Subjek penelitian adalah pasien stroke sebanyak 54 orang. Desain penelitian ini adalah cross sectional dengan teknik pengambilan sampel secara simple random sampling. Pengukuran konstipasi menggunakan Constipation Scoring System (CSS) dan untuk menilai aktifitas fisik digunakan International Physical Activity Quosioner (IPAQ). Analisa statisitik dilakukan dengan uji korelasi Spearmen. Hasil: Responden dengan aktifitas rendah dan mengalami konstipasi berjumlah 34 orang (87,18%). Hal ini menunjukan terdapat hubungan yang kuat dan bersifat positif antara aktivitas fisik dan konstipasi pada pasien stroke (p = 0,000, r = 0,608). Simpulan: Terdapat hubungan aktifitas fisik terhadap konstipasi pada pasien stroke di RS Islam Siti Rahmah padang
