Completed
Conditions
Diarrhoea Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Interventions
Other: EnteraGam
Registration Number
NCT02661425
Lead Sponsor
Entera Health, Inc
Brief Summary

This is a retrospective study designed to gather outcomes data from existing medical charts from patients who have taken EnteraGam for management of their IBS-D for at least eight weeks. Data from two study periods will be collected: (1) the time during which the Standard of Care (SOC) therapy (i.e., prescribed or over-the-counter as well as FDA-approved or non-approved agents) that is used immediately prior to prescribing EnteraGam; and (2) the time during which EnteraGam is used as therapy.

Detailed Description

* The first collection of information (Visit 1 - Chart Report Form) will be for the visit at which the SOC therapy, utilized immediately before the introduction of EnteraGam, was initiated. This data point will serve as the baseline for that SOC therapy.

* The second collection of information (Visit 2 - Chart Report Form) will be for the visit at which the original prescription for EnteraGam was written and the patient was instructed to begin the therapy. Captured data will consist of information contained in the patient's chart for a minimum of eight weeks and a maximum of 12 weeks prior to initiation of EnteraGam therapy. This data point will serve as the baseline for initiation of EnteraGam therapy.

* The third collection point (Visit 3 - Chart Report Form) will be at the next patient visit to the clinic - provided that visit is a minimum of eight weeks following initiation of EnteraGam therapy.
