Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- FI - number of FI episodes per week and/or number of days with FI per week. Constipation - number of bowel movements per week; &/or decrease defecations requiring straining; &/or decrease defecations where there was incomplete emptying [Annually]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- FI-number of days with staining/week;urgency with continent bowel movements; Improvement in QOL;* Improvement in anal canal pressure. Constipation - Improvement in Wexner constipation score; QOL. [Annually]
