简要总结

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the feasibility of inducing contraction of the anal sphincter by transcutaneous neuromuscular electrical stimulation in patients with fecal incontinence.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Efficacy of the specific stimulation protocol to increase anal pressures
  • Tolerability and safety Participants will be exposed to the stimulation with the changes in pressure will be studied using high resolution anorectal manometry

结局指标

主要结局

Stimulation intensity levels

时间窗: During exposure to electrical stimulation 5 min

The stimulation intensity levels measured in milliamperes (mA) required to induce changes in anal sphincter pressures measured by manometry.

次要结局

  • Safety of neuromuscular transcutaneous stimulation measured as the proportion of patients reporting or presenting with adverse events during the study attributed or not to the use of electrical stimulation(Until discharge, assessed up to 7 days)
  • Maximal tolerability to neuromuscular transcutaneous stimulation measured as the current in mA causing discomfort of at least 7 on a scale of 0 to 10 points.(During exposure to electrical stimulation 5 min)
