Testing a bowel control scale for anorectal malformation
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests if a scale called the Baylor Continence Scale works well for children who had surgery for anorectal malformation. It helps measure bowel control, which can guide better care.

This study compares different surgical techniques for children with a specific type of anorectal malformation (perineal or vestibular fistula). It aims to see which surgery leads to better outcomes.
This study looks at long-term health and development outcomes in children who were diagnosed and treated for Hirschsprung’s disease or anorectal malformations. It uses both numbers and interviews to understand what happens over time after treatment, helping families and clinicians plan better care.
This study tests whether physical therapy can help children aged 5-18 who have bladder or bowel problems after surgery for anorectal malformation. Participating could improve your child's symptoms and quality of life.
This study is for children aged 4–16 who have long-term constipation that doesn't get better with standard laxatives. It uses a test called anorectal manometry to measure how well the muscles in the bottom work, which can help guide treatment.
