liberate - pro: eclipse™ system registry

Conditions: Fecal Incontinence; Bowel Dysfunction; Bowel Incontinence; Accidental Bowel Leakage

Summary: a prospective, open label post market registry to collect patient reported outcomes in an online data capture registry, maintained by pelvalon, of women with fecal incontinence exiting the liberate study (nct02428595) continuing to use the eclipse system for bowel control.

all liberate (nct02428595) study participants who complete the 12 month visit will be invited to participate in the liberate-pro post market registry in an effort to obtain additional long term quality of life and economic data. subjects will be sent an email with a link to the survey(s) or mailed printed surveys depending on chosen survey delivery option to be completed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months.baseline will be defined as the baseline value in the liberate study, prior to the insertion of the eclipse system. 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.
