NCT ID: NCT01004185

Last Updated: 2012-05-25

Results Overview

PUCAI Score (0-85, sum of scores for each): abdominal pain (0/5/10 - no pain/ignored/not ignored), rectal bleeding (0/10/20/30 - none, small amount \<50% of stools, small amount most stools, large amount \>50%), stool consistency (0/5/10 - formed, partially formed, completely formed), # stools/24 hrs. (0/5/10/15 - 0-2/3-5/6-8/\>8), nocturnal bowel/any diarrhea causing wakening (0/10 - no/yes), activity level (0/5/10 - no limitation/occ limitation, severe restrictions).
