Feasibility study of defecation studied with a wireless Fecobionics probe in normal subjects
Fecobionics was further developed into a wireless device that integrated measurements of axial pressures, orientation, bending, and shape changes. Pressure‐bending‐shape integrated patterns are presented from normal subjects. Fecobionics data differed significantly from BET expulsion duration and ARM‐RAPG data.
