Abstract
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a biopsychosocial disease consisting of a set of functional disorders not explained by organic changes in the intestine. Patients with IBS were divided into two groups: with non-refractory (IBSn - 35 people) and refractory (IBSr - 47 people) the course of the IBS. Of these, taking into account the leading clinical syndrome, patients with IBSn-d (diarrhea) - 21 people were identified (25.6%), IBSn-c – (constipation) 14 people (17%), IBSr-d - 28 people (34.2% ), IBSr-c - 19 people (23.2%). 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 IBS symptoms allows to objectify the severity of clinical manifestation of intestinal dysfunction in patients, identify the clinical features of the course of this pathology.
