“…Fecal incontinence is a key concern for people with IBD . The prevalence of fecal incontinence in patients with IBD ranges from 24 to 74% and occurs during active and quiescent disease phases . Incontinence rates in patients with a pouch vary from 4 to 55% overnight and 4 to 40% during the day .…”

Background and AimLarge bowel functional symptoms are common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who are in disease remission. The efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training for symptoms of evacuation difficulty or fecal incontinence is well established in patients without organic bowel disease but is unknown in these patients. This study aimed to systematically evaluate the published evidence in this group of patients.MethodsA systematic review was conducted of articles evaluating pelvic floor muscle training, with or without biofeedback, to improve bowel function in patients with quiescent IBD, including those with an ileoanal pouch. The outcome of interest was improved bowel function measured by bowel diary, patient report, or validated questionnaire in randomized controlled studies, cohort studies, or case series.ResultsTwo randomized controlled trials, four retrospective case series, and one prospective study met eligibility criteria. Pelvic floor muscle training for patients with quiescent IBD improved symptoms in 51 of 76 (68%) patients with evacuation difficulty and 20 of 25 (80%) patients with fecal incontinence. Pelvic floor muscle training for patients with an ileoanal pouch, prior to stoma closure, did not appear to reduce the risk or severity of fecal incontinence following stoma closure. Studies were limited by small numbers, study design, methodological quality, and lack of long‐term follow‐up.ConclusionPelvic floor muscle training appears to be of therapeutic value in some patients with quiescent IBD and evacuation difficulty or fecal incontinence. The effectiveness of this approach warrants further investigation.

Background: The possibility of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) occurrence seems to be higher in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) due to the presence of functional gastrointestinal disorders in these patients. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the association of ulcerative colitis (UC) in women with PFD and its comparison with the healthy (without IBD) population. Methods: The present study was conducted on 150 women with UC and 150 without-IBD individuals. Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI-20) was used to evaluate the pelvic floor function. Results: The results of this study revealed that UC had a significant role in increasing not only the PFD score (Beta=3.04; P<0.001) but also the score of each sub-scale of Pelvic Organ Prolapse Distress Inventory (POPDI) (Beta=6.61; P<0.001), Colo-Rectal-Anal Distress Inventory (CRADI) (Beta=9.37; P<0.001), and Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI) (Beta=5.56; P=0.015). In addition, aging, increased body mass index (BMI) and menopause had significant role in increasing POPDI, UDI, and PFDI scores, respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion: The percentage of PFD in women with UC was significantly higher than its percentage in women without IBD. This dysfunction was more visible in the two sub-scales of POPDI and CRADI. In addition to having UC, aging, BMI, and menopause played a significant role in increasing PFD.
