Re-treatment is allowed one month after initial treatment if the subject is still incontinent.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Responder Rate in Number of Fecal Incontinence Episodes12 months after last treatment compared to baseline

Responder rate in number of fecal incontinence episodes change from baseline at 12 month.

Defined as responders at 12 month after treatment. A responder was defined as 50% or more reduction in the number of fecal incontinence episodes (28-day diary data)of solid or loose stool, compared to baseline.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Fecal Incontinence Episodes.at 12 month - change from baseline

Number of fecal incontinence episodes, change from baseline (change in patient diary data at 12 month).

Fecal Incontinence Severity Using the Cleveland Clinic Florida Incontinence Score12 month - change from baseline

Cleveland Clinic Florida Incontinence Score (CCFIS) is a composite score of incontinence severity that measures the frequencies of gas leakage, leakage of solid or loose stool, use of protective pads and lifestyle alterations. The score ranges from 0 (representing complete continence)to 20 (representing complete incontinence).

Change from baseline.

Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life (FIQL)At 12 month - change from baseline

Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life is a disease specific questionnaire composed of a total of 29 questions questions divided into four domains: Lifestyle, Coping/Behavior, Depression/Self perception, and Embarrassment. The FIQL mean score ranges from 1 to 4 for the Lifestyle, Coping/Behavior and Embarrassment domains, and from 1 to 4.429 for Depression/Self-Perception domain. Mean score were calculated for each of the four domains. The more the subject is affected by fecal incontinence the lower value. Change from baseline.

Number of Incontinence-free DaysAt 12 month- change from baseline

Number of incontinence-free days, change from baseline (change in patient diary data at 12 month).
