New Study: IBSOS (Study Page)
A new study, Irritable Bowel Syndrome Outcome Study (IBSOS), has been posted to the NIDDK Central Repository. Data from this study are now available for request.
The Irritable Bowel Syndrome Outcome Study (IBSOS) sought to address the limitations of standard therapist-administered CBT by developing an effective self-administered version of the treatment method. IBSOS participants were randomized into one of three treatment groups and underwent four weeks of symptom monitoring. One group received the standard ten sessions of clinic-based CBT, one group received four sessions of minimal-contact CBT, and the remaining group received four sessions of supportive counseling and education without any prescribed behavior changes. Following the symptom monitoring phase, patients underwent treatment and follow-up phases. Assessments were regularly conducted during the study and the results were evaluated between the groups.
