American Gastroenterological Association Technical Review on Constipation
Open accessAbstract
Constipation is a very common symptom. Prompted by several advances since the last technical review 15 years ago,1 this update will identify a rational, efficacious, and ideally cost-effective approach to patients with constipation. Toward those objectives, the epidemiology, clinical assessment, diagnostic testing, and management of constipation will be discussed, primarily from the perspective of a practicing gastroenterologist. Constipation in children and secondary constipation (eg, due to spinal cord injury) in adults will not be specifically addressed. This review was prepared by updating the previous technical review with material sourced from recent reviews on chronic constipation,2–4 supplemented by selected and focused literature searches of peer-reviewed, published studies. Although recommendations are graded based on US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) ratings, formal cost-effectiveness analyses have not been performed. Comparisons of diagnostic approaches, with precise estimates of specificity and sensitivities, also have not been published. Indeed, in some instances, individual diagnostic techniques have not even been standardized.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
