IBS is a Diagnosis of Exclusion
......or is it ?
If in doubt go see your local Shamen……..occasionally they
come to see you

British Society of Gastroenterology
Guidelines 2000
7
IBS• 9-12% of adult population• 40-60% of all Gastro OPA referrals• 1M : 2.5F
• Aetiology– Psychological (Increased incidence of Psych Hx)– Stress (ppt in 50%)– Post infective(ppt in 10-20%)– Consulting behaviour / Abnormal illness behaviour– Gut motility (no consistent evidence)– Visceral hypersensitivity– Diet (lactose + wheat intolerance)
8
IBS
• Rome Criteria 3
• 3m of Abdominal Pain / Discomfort• Associated with 2 of 3
– Altered frequency– Altered consistency– Improves with defaecation
9
IBS - Associated symptoms
• Tiredness / lethargy• Poor sleep• Backpain• Fybromyalgia• Urinary urgency and frequency• Dysguesia - Unpleasant taste in mouth
10
IBS - Investigation
• FBC + ESR (1%)• TFT (6%)• Coeliac (2-15%)• Ca + Albumin• Stool MCS + COP• Faecal elastase• US (incidental gallstones and fibroids 8%)• Lactose intolerance testing (21-25%)• Flexible sig / BaEnema / Colonoscopy• SeHCAT scan - Bile acid malabsorption (8%)

12
IBS Management• Positive diagnosis• Listen• Lifestyle advice• Placebo (50%)• Dietary advice
– (exclude lactulose, wheat, caffeine, CHO)
• Psychological therapies– Diagnosis + Psych referral– Relaxation, Biofeedback, Hypnotherapy, Cognitive behavioural,
Psychotherapy
• Pharmacological Rx– PTO
13
Give me a Gastro patient that doesn’t fit these criteria !
• Pancreatic Ca, Crohn’s stricture, Colonic Ca• Rome Criteria 3 - Surely we can all relate
personally to these
3m of Abdominal Pain / DiscomfortAssociated with 2 of 3
– Altered frequency– Altered consistency– Improves with defaecation
– But what about “bloaty” woman, I hear you cry ?????
14
Warning - Before you diagnose someone with IBS - be aware
• Ford AC. ArchIntMed 2009– 4.1% of all IBS = Coeliac disease
• Garcia-Rodriguez LA. ScanJGastro. 2000: 35; 306– IBS patients have a 6x risk of Ca in 1st year– IBS patients after 5y have >20x risk of CrD
• Hamilton W. BMJ. 2009: 339– 2.5% Ovarian Ca present with bloating
15
IBS Facts• Google = 6.5 million entries for IBS
• Heaton. GUT. 1992– Only 58% of normal pop conformed to
producing normal stool on Bristol Stool Chart
• Piessevaux. DDW. 2009– 80% of Belgiums have lower GI symptoms– 10% reach IBS criteria
16
New IBS referralWhat does it mean to me?
• Could be anything gastroenterological, that hasn’t yet
been given a label
17
IBS - Is there better terminology to explain what we mean?
• Non-organic disorder or
• Functional bowel symptoms (FBS)– My preference
18
The Secret of Treating IBS / Functional Bowel Syndrome
“Don’t treat the symptoms- Treat the root cause”
19
Functional Bowel Syndrome What are the main symptoms
• 1) Chronic Diarrhoea (rare)• 2) Classic Constipation• 3) Constipation Cycle Functional Bowel
Syndrome (C-IBS)– Diverticulosis, Coeliac– Right sided faecal loading
• 4) Pain– Faecal loading (Left Vs Right or Pan-colonic)– Bloating / Aerophagia
• 5) Bloating
20
1) Chronic Diarrhoea

22
D-IBS > 3x/d• Fernandez-Banares F. AmJGastro. 2007: 102; 2520
– 62 Colonoscopy -ive patients– 82% had an underlying diagnosis
• Coeliac + sb Crohn’s• Lactose + Fructose intolerance• Small bowel bacterial overgrowth• Bile acid malabsorption• Pancreatic insufficiency
– 18% had functional IBS (?psych / PI-IBS)
23
Post-Infectious IBS
• Meta-analysis = 5-10% develop PI-IBS– Halvarson AmJG. 2006; 101: 1994
• Campylobacter - 27%– Parry S. AmJGastro 2003:98;1970
• Salmonella - 18%– Mearin F. Gastro. 2005: 129; 98
• E.coli - (63% with ETEC/EATC) 18% of these suffered IBS after 6m– Okhuysen PC AmJGastro. 2004:99;1774
24
Chronic Diarrhoea
• All patients need to be actively investigated • All patients should be referred to a
gastroenterologist
• NB- IBS symptoms can still be experienced in patients with organic disease
• 60% of UC patients• 39% of CrD patients
• Keohane J. AmJGastro. 2010: 105; 1788
25
2) Left sided Constipation
• 1) LIF pain (exclude DD)• 2) Reduced frequency• 3) Harder consistency with Straining +/-
Haemorrhoids or Fissure
• Mx• 1) Increase fluid intake >2L/day• 2) High fibre diet (not if DD present)• 3) Laxatives• 4) Stimulants
26
Some slides have be borrowed with kind regards to;-
Dr. Anton Emmanuel of
UK/BU/RES/11/0051n Date of preparation: September 2011
and also to the
SHIRE Team and the Advanced Constipation Training Course
32
3) Constipation cycle functional bowel syndrome
- Proximal / Right sided faecal loading
• 1) Altered bowel habits = Hard pellets + episodic loose• 2) Bloating / Flatulence / Borborygmi• 3) Sense on incomplete emptying• 4) Straining +/- Haemorrhoids
• Mx• 1) Increase fluid intake >2L/day• 2) Low residue (high soluble fibre) diet• 3) Osmotic agents (Movicol) +/- Laxatives• 4) Stimulants +/- 5HT4 agonists (Prucalopride)

Right sided faecal loading
43
4) Abdominal Pain
44
Abdominal Pain
• a) Faecal Loading– Left sided– Right sided– Pan-colonic
• b) Diverticulosis
• c) Bloating– Aerophagia
45
Bloating
46
3 Main Causes
• 1) Air swallowed = Aerophagia• 2) Gas production = SBBO• 3) Air trapped = Faecal Loading
• Mx• 1) Awareness / Exercise / Positional
deflation /Anti-anxiety agents• 2) H2 Lactulose breath test + Abs• 3) Rx to soften and shift the bowel

Aerophagia

Low FODMAP Diet
• FODMAPs =• Fermentable Oligo-, Di-, and Mono-saccharides,
And Polyols.
• Typical symptoms would include – abdominal bloating– excessive gas– chronic diarrhea or constipation
• Strict FODMAP avoidance

Use of surrogate markers of inflammation and Rome criteria to distinguish organic from non-
organic intestinal diseaseTibble J. Gastro. 2002; (123): 450-460
• 602 new referrals with bowel symptoms
• All patients had FC, intestinal permeability studies and either Ba enema or colonoscopy
• 263 had organic disease, 339 diagnosed with IBS
• FC OR=27.8 p<0.0001Sensitivity Specificity
FC 89% 79%
IP 63% 87%
Rome I 85% 71%
59
BMJ Meta-analysisRheenen P.F. BMJ. 2010;341:c3369
• 13 studies = 670 adults + 371 children
• Sensitivity = 0.93 (0.85-0.97) in adults
• Specificity = 0.96 (0.79-0.99) similar in kids
• Screening potential IBD patients would reduce 67% of colonoscopy
• 6% false negative = delayed diagnosis
• 9% may have a non-IBD pathology
60
Can FCalp reduce unnecessary colonoscopy in IBS
Whitehead SJ. GUT. 2010; (59): A36
• 2419 patients
• 1750 -ives
• 669 +ives (FC > 50mcg/g) = 58% pathology
• Cheaper + more effective at differentiating between IBS and IBD
• Same price as doing a ESR + CRP
