On Tuesday, February 9th the ACCT Webinar: Transanal irrigation (TAI) – a solution for constipation and fecal incontinence took place. During one hour we heard Professors Jan Tack and Anton Emmanuel together with Clinical Nurse Lead Bev Collins discuss how Transanal Irrigation (TAI) could be a possible management option for a wider group of patients and how to improve adherence to the therapy. Here are some highlights from the event.
Topics: Bowel management, Neurogenic bowel, ACCT, Transanal Irrigation
Chronic idiopathic constipation, or functional constipation, is a frequent reason for seeking healthcare and referral of specialty care – despite new knowledge there is still confusion and many misconceptions regarding the condition, outcome and treatment.

We do. At Wellspect, bladder and bowel problems are at the center of our endeavors, and we've made it our mission to remove the stigma around these issues and spread knowledge about the available solutions. One of these is transanal irrigation (TAI). In our ACCT Webinar on February 9th, 15:00-16:00 CET, we have put together an educational program that covers transanal irrigation as a possible therapy to manage constipation and fecal incontinence, with examples taken from the latest scientific research. Don’t miss it!
