Study authors tested HyGIeaCare on 175 patients with varying etiologies of chronic constipation.
Approximately 100 percent of the patients successfully passed stool during the high-volume colon irrigation procedure.
Researchers concluded, “High-volume colon irrigation appears to be an effective, well-tolerated and safe alternative to medical therapy for patients suffering with chronic constipation.
Researchers added future studies were needed to study the longevity of response duration. Researchers suggest HyGIeaCare may have a lasting effect that surpassses immediate relief.
HyGIeaCare Chairman and CEO Gavriel Meron said, “HyGIeaCare Relief for chronic constipation proved to be a well-tolerated and safe alternative for patients suffering from constipation with a high willingness to repeat. We are pleased to see more physicians referring constipated and impacted patients, allowing them to safely benefit from excellent outcomes.”
