Purpose: to determine the effects of hand acupuncture on IBS-affected college women's bowel symptoms and psychologic health by applying the therapy to them. Method: The researcher sampled the nursing student attending a college of nursing science in Seoul and checked if they were affected by IBS in reference to the Rome II Criteria. Students were classified into a experimental group(21 subjects) and a control group(19 subjects). Hand acupuncture was applied to the experimental group 8 rounds for 4 weeks; each round lasted 30 minutes. Data were collected for 8 weeks from October 11 to December 1, 2004. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS 12.0 program. Result: After the therapy, frequency(p=.005), distress(p=.001) and disability (p=.000) associated IBS bowel symptom and anxiety were significantly lowered in the experimental group(p=.026). Conclusions: It was confirmed through this study that the hand acupuncture would be effective in relieving IBS bowel symptoms and anxiety.

프로바이오틱스(Probiotics)는 적정량 섭취 시 장내 균총의 유지 및 균형을 맞추어 장의 항상성 유지에 도움을 주는 등 인체의 유용한 작용을 하는 균이다. 주로 유제품에 많이 포함 되어있으며 다양한 국가에서 오래 전부터 섭취되어 왔다. 특히, Lactobacillus는 가장 많이 연구된 probiotic 중 하나로 100개 이상의 종으로 구성되어 있으며, 다양한 연구를 통해 Lactobacillus는 단지 식품으로의 역할 뿐만이 아닌 장 질환에 관련한 그 작용이 밝혀져 왔다. 본 총설에서는 프로바이오틱 Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG가 여러 장질환에 미치는 영향과 Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG 포함된 발효유 '퓨어'의 섭취가 과민성 대장증후군에 미치는 효과에 대해 논의하였다.

수용­전념 치료(ACT)가 과민성 대장 증후군이 있는 사람들의 과민성 대장 증후군(IBS) 증상 심도, 지각된 스트레스, 과민성 대장 증후군 특이적 삶의 질 및 수용 행동에 미치는 효과를 알아보았다. 성인 156명에게 과민성 대장 증후군 진단척도를 실시한 뒤 14명을 참가자로 선정하였고, IBS 증상 심도, 지각된 스트레스, 삶의 질 및 수용 행동에 관한 사전 검사를 실시하여 치료 집단에 7명, 통제 집단에 7명을 할당하였다. 프로그램은 주 2회씩 총 10회기가 진행 되었고, 사후 검사 및 4주 후 추적 검사가 실시되었다. 최종 참여자는 치료 집단에 6명, 통제 집단에 6명이다. 연구 결과, 수용 전념 치료 프로그램에 따른 IBS 증상 심도의 변화는 유의하지 않았지만, 지각된 스트레스와 삶의 질 및 수용 행동 상의 변화는 유의하였다. 적은 수의 참가자로 치료 프로그램이 진행되어 참여 인원이 증가된 후속 연구의 필요성은 있겠으나, 과민성 대장 증후군이 있는 사람들의 스트레스 수준을 낮추고 삶의 질과 수용 행동을 높이는데 수용전념치료가 효과적임을 입증하는 경험적인 증거를 제공한다.

복통은 말 그대로 '배가 아픈 것'을 말하며, 한 번쯤 겪어보지 않은 사람이 없을 만큼 흔한 증상이다. 복통은 흔한 만큼 그 원인도 다양하다. 소화불량, 역류성 식도염, 과민성 대장증후군, 간염, 위궤양 등 비교적 널리 알려진 질병도 있지만 크론병, 게실염 등 일반에게는 생소한 질병도 있다.

Purpose: This study was to investigate impacts of daily habits, health status and health promoting behavior on prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) among female high school students. Methods: The survey was conducted from 526 female students in high school. Rome III criteria was used to diagnose IBS. Data of daily habits, health status, and health promoting behavior were collected through self-administered structured questionnaires. Results: The prevalence of IBS was 25.7%.

Risk factors influencing IBS were exercise time, physical health and emotional health status. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that nursing interventions and education programs are important to be developed, while considering exercise, health status and health promoting behaviors for female adolescents in order to manage their IBS.

There have been many trials of clinical efficacy of multi component and single component treatments for irritable bowel syndrome(IBS). We reviewed effects of non phamacological treatments in the IBS. Though the efficacy of multi-component approaches was unclear, several results suggest that cognitive behavioral therapy was effective in improving gastrointestinal symptoms of IBS. As a single component, cognitive therapy and relaxation with or without biofeedback could improve the symptoms and psychological health of IBS patients. Yoga, meditation, self-help information and hypnotherapy could be applicable to IBS.
