Réduction du stress et modification du mode de vie chez les patients atteints du syndrome du côlon irritable

5 novembre 2026 mis à jour par: Jost Langhorst, Universität Duisburg-Essen

Effet d'un programme de réduction du stress et de modification du mode de vie sur la qualité de vie des patients atteints du syndrome du côlon irritable (MBM IBS)

In the planned efficacy study, a prospective randomized controlled trial will be conducted to investigate the extent to which a multimodal stress reduction and lifestyle modification program can be reflected in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) within the framework of a clinical study. For this purpose, 118 patients with IBS will be enrolled in a clinical study. The intervention group will participate in a partial outpatient multimodal stress reduction and lifestyle modification program over 10 weeks, while the waitlist control group will only receive an educational session and written information on treatment and self-help options. The primary research question encompasses the examination of the program's impact on the severity of symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome (measured with the IBS-Symptom Severity Scale [IBS-SSS]) and additionally its influence on quality of life, stress, and mental well-being. Another aspect of the study is the utilization of medical services (e.g., comparing the number of doctor visits; intake of prescribed and over-the-counter medications). Additionally, a comparison of days of work disability will be conducted.

Aperçu de l'étude

Description détaillée

The intervention is a 10-week multimodal stress reduction and lifestyle modification program consisting of 10 sessions, each lasting 6 hours. In groups of around 10 individuals, patients are comprehensively trained on the interplay between lifestyle and health, stress management, moderate physical activity (including yoga and Tai Chi), a Mediterranean diet, and self-help strategies. Successfully tested in two pilot studies, the program has evolved over 15 years and gained clinical experience in chronic inflammatory bowel diseases. It is now being applied to patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Built on concepts like the Mind-Body Program and mindfulness-based stress reduction, the intervention incorporates elements from salutogenic and transtheoretical models and psychotherapeutic approaches.

Few integrative medicine approaches for IBS have undergone rigorous evaluation. IBS patients often experience reduced quality of life due to stress and psychosocial symptoms. The program, proven effective in inflammatory bowel diseases, covers stress reduction, dietary improvement, physical activity promotion, self-care applications, coping strategy training, and naturopathic treatments. Medically supervised, the group setting aims to enhance the intervention's impact through mutual support. Practical skills are demonstrated, and the goal is to empower patients for active, responsible, long-term management.

Participants in the waitlist control group receive a 1,5-hour educational session on lifestyle factors' influence and self-help materials. After week 36 measurements, they are offered participation in the multimodal program.

Questionnaires, a diary, and interviews will measure the outcomes of the study. Sociodemographics will be collected.

Armes et Interventions

Groupe de participants / Bras
Intervention / Traitement
Expérimental: intervention group

Once a week for 10 weeks with a circumference of 60 hours with mindfulness-based stress reduction and further process of the Mind / body medicine.

The group intervention is carried out once a week for 10 weeks for a total of 60 hours with elements of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and mind / body medicine. In this project, this program will be adapted to the specific needs of irritable bowel syndrome patients.

Comparateur actif: waitlist control group

A unique education unit within the scope of 1,5 hours on the influence of lifestyle factors on the disease and self-help materials for the independent training. After the follow-up measurement opportunity to participate in the program.

Participants in this group receive a one-time education unit within the scope of 1,5 hours on the influence of lifestyle factors on the disease, also self-help materials for independent training offered. Following the follow-up measure also this group is given the opportunity to participate in the multimodal stress reduction- and lifestyle modification program.
