Abstract

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a biopsychosocial disease consisting of a set of functional disorders not explained by organic changes in the intestine. A total of 117 patients and healthy people were examined. Patients were divided into 2 groups: the first group were patients with IBS, which were divided into 2 subgroups: IBSd (diarrhea) - 51 patients (20 men and 31 women), IBSc (constipation) - 66 patients (33 men and 33 women). More abdominal pain syndrome was noted in patients with a clinical form of IBS with a predominance of diarrhea. The ordinal assessment of the severity of SRC symptoms allows to objectify the severity of clinical manifestation of intestinal dysfunction in patients, identify the clinical features of the course of this pathology.
