Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Visceral Sensitivity Index, Systematic Desensitization, Rational Psychotherapy, Sulpiride, Anxiety-Phobic DisordersAbstract
This study investigated the Visceral Sensitivity Index and the effectiveness of systematic desensitization therapy in 80 patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). The patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 received systematic desensitization therapy combined with sulpiride, while Group 2 received rational psychotherapy combined with sulpiride. The results demonstrated that systematic desensitization therapy was effective in reducing visceral sensitivity as well as anxiety-phobic symptoms in patients with IBS.
