3. Fact Sheet: Report from IFFGD Research Award Winner: Research into Treatment-Resistant Constipation in Children

   835

   By: Bridgett Southwell, PhD

   Constipation and fecal soiling in children and teenagers are major impediments to education. Schools will not accept children who cannot toilet themselves. Children whose soiled clothing gives off an odor are ostracized by others. We have developed a 6 point approach to treating children with chronic constipation.

   843

   By: William F. Norton, Communications Director, IFFGD; Carlo DiLorenzo, MD

   Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIP) is a rare disorder of gastrointestinal motility where coordinated contractions (peristalsis) in the intestinal tract become altered and inefficient. When this happens, nutritional requirements cannot be adequately met. This article discusses the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatments of CIP. Reviewed 2009.
