What this Trial Is About
Researchers are conducting a prospective observational study to understand ileorectal syndrome, which may develop in patients who have had total colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis. The study aims to evaluate how often this syndrome occurs, how severe the symptoms are, and how it impacts patients' quality of life. It also seeks to explore the relationship between bowel dysfunction after surgery and quality of life, as well as clinical factors that influence symptom severity. Participants will be observed over a 12-month period, starting from the baseline and continuing to one year. This study involves collecting data through questionnaires focused on postoperative bowel function and symptoms. The study does not involve any invasive procedures or treatments, and data such as demographic information, surgical details, and laboratory results will also be collected for analysis. During the study, participants will complete surveys and follow-up assessments regarding their bowel symptoms and quality of life. The research team will monitor symptom severity and bowel function over time, using patient-reported outcomes. The study is designed to increase awareness and improve management strategies for ileorectal syndrome without adding medical risks, with all data gathered by the responsible investigator at the clinic.
