Study Summary
Fecal incontinence (FI) is clinically subtyped as urge FI and passive FI based on symptoms, however the pathophysiologic significance of this subtyping is not known. FI is commonly encountered in women with pelvic floor disorders. This study aims to compare characteristics of clinical severity, quality of life, anatomy, and physiology of urge FI versus passive FI. Urogynecology patients greater than age 18 with FI at least monthly over the last 3 months will be recruited for participation. Participants will be divided into urge FI subtype and passive FI subtype. Participants will complete validated questionnaires on clinical severity and quality of life, both as related to FI and general heath. Participants will undergo pelvic examination, endoanal ultrasound and anorectal manometry for evaluation of anatomic and physiologic pathology. Results between both groups will be compared. The investigators hypothesize that clinical, anatomic, and physiologic characteristics differ between urge-predominant fecal incontinence and passive-predominant fecal incontinence in women with pelvic floor disorders.
