Brief Summary
|
This
is a prospective study conducted on a sample population of patients clinically
diagnosed by a physician that the patient suffers from Irritable Bowel Syndrome
(IBS). The participants will be recruited from a gastroenterology
hospital/clinic. The patients, who meet eligibility criteria, will be enrolled
in the study after obtaining their consent.
All
patients will go through the initial assessment where details about their
demographics, symptoms severity, and lifestyle including dietary and exercise
habits, and other relevant medical or surgical history will be taken.
The
sample population will then be divided into two cohorts of patients. To reduce
the risk of bias, both cohorts will have a good representation and equal
distribution of patient demographics (Age, weight, sex, etc.) and their IBS
symptom severity score (IBS-SSS).
Primary
Purpose: Management and Improvisation through WinHealth’s DTx platform in
preventing and improving symptoms of IBS, leading to better patient outcomes
and improved quality of life. |
