Poor quality evidence to support the use of biofeedback for the treatment of functional constipation in adults
Abstract
Implications for practice and research: Currently, there is insufficient evidence to make conclusions regarding the efficacy and safety of biofeedback for patients with chronic constipation. Further, well-designed randomised controlled trials are needed to allow definitive conclusions to be drawn.
