Trans-cutaneous Vagal Nerve Electrical Stimulation and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (StVSII)
Sympatho-vagal Balance in Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and Evaluation of a Transcutaneous Vagal Nerve Electrical Stimulation on Symptoms and Quality of Life
This pilot study plan to investigate the sympathovagal balance in women affected by Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and to evaluate the effect of 6 months of trans-cutaneous vagal nerve electrical stimulation on digestive physiology (intestinal transit time, intestinal mucosal permeability, systemic and local inflammation), symptoms and quality of life.
The safety of the electrical stimulation of the left vagal nerve will also be evaluated.
Ten women, age between 18 and 60, will be included.
