- W2000253301 abstract "OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to assess the long-term outcomes of a biofeedback treatment programme for obstructive defaecation up to five years after completion of treatment, reporting from the patients' perspective the subsequent progression of defaecation difficulties and the perceived usefulness of the biofeedback training and its components. METHODS: A biofeedback program for obstructive defaecation at a major hospital in Sydney provided 37 patients with reading material, taught defaecation techniques, and prescribed simulated defaecation and anal relaxation exercises to practice between their monthly biofeedback sessions. Twenty-nine of these patients were contacted by telephone an average of 23 months after last attending and asked to rate the present severity of their condition, changes since last attending biofeedback, and which aspects of the program they found most helpful. RESULTS: Of patients who completed the program, 70% achieved at least a 15% improvement in perceived symptom severity. Those who completed the program and achieved benefit were more likely to name the exercises as the most helpful program component. At the time of follow-up, however, there was no difference in perceived symptom severity between program completers and noncompleters. Program completers, and those followed up more than two years after last attending biofeedback, were more likely to report a worsening in symptom severity subsequent to their final treatment session. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms the favourable short-term outcomes achieved by some patients completing biofeedback treatment for obstructive defaecation. The findings suggest that biofeedback equipment may be economically used in an educative and corrective role, and that other factors such as education, exercises and counselling alone play an important role. Finally, the benefits of biofeedback may not be maintained through long-term follow-up, raising questions as to the natural history of the disorder and the long-term effectiveness of biofeedback treatment." @default.
