[Biofeedback treatment of fecal incontinence and constipation].
In summary, studies published in recent years on biofeedback training in defecation disorders--fecal incontinence and constipation--have presented convincing evidence that this method which derives from psychological learning theory has found clinical importance and relevance. Future research will need to demonstrate the mechanisms involved in its efficacy, the best clinical diagnosis and treatment modalities, and the long term effects of such management.
