Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The St. Mark's (Vaizey) Incontinence Severity Score will be used to assess the severity of accidental bowel leakage at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months in comparison to how it was prior to joining the LIBERATE study. The score is based on 7 questions and is a measure of severity of fecal incontinence (FI) symptoms, which has been shown to correlate with improvement in frequency of FI episodes and subjects' perceptions of relief. The composite score calculated from these questions reflects the severity of FI and ranges from 0 (complete continence) to 24 (complete incontinence). The change from baseline score will be calculated at each time point. The average change from baseline score, computed as the mean change from baseline across all completed assessments, will be calculated.
The Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) is a validated global index used to rate the response of a condition to a therapy on a scale from 1 (Very much better) to 7 (Very much worse). The PGI-I will be used to assess improvement of accidental bowel leakage at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months in comparison to how it was prior to joining the LIBERATE study. The average PGI-I score, computed as the mean score across all completed assessments, will be calculated.
The FIQOL (Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire will be completed at 12 months. The Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life (FIQOL) scale is a 41-item, validated questionnaire completed by the subject. FIQOL has 4 subscales: lifestyle, coping/behavior, depression/self-perception and embarrassment. Each subscale score ranges from 1 to 5, with 1 indicating a lower functional status of quality of life. FIQOL score will be used to assess the changes in quality of life in each of the subscales in comparison to the same scores prior to joining the LIBERATE study.The change from baseline in each of the 4 subscale scores (lifestyle, coping/behavior, depression/self-perception, embarrassment) will be calculated.
The Eclipse Experience feedback (questions related to perceptions of device comfort, satisfaction with usage and features, and impact on daily activities) will be collected at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months.
All outcomes will be summarized descriptively at each time point.
