This study looks at how bowel management enema programs work for people with spina bifida (a type of spinal cord condition). It aims to improve continence and quality of life.
This trial tests whether a saline-glycerin enema can help children with bowel leakage (fecal incontinence). It is designed for children aged 3 to 16 who have leakage due to certain conditions like corrected anal birth defects, Hirschsprung disease, or severe constipation.
This trial compares two common stool-softening medications—senna (a natural laxative) and polyethylene glycol (PEG, a synthetic stool softener)—to see which works better for children who have frequent accidents due to constipation. The goal is to find the most effective and safe treatment.
This study tests a home-based pelvic floor training program for children and teens who have bladder problems like wetting, frequent urination, or pain. It aims to see if this training can help improve symptoms without needing to visit a physical therapist.
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.
This study looks at how placing an antegrade (forward-flow) continence enema and starting a bowel flush routine may change your gut microbiome (your gut bacteria). It is meant for children who have long-lasting constipation that required a special surgical drainage channel.
