Effective and Safe
Drug-Free CIC Treatment
Vibrant is indicated for the treatment of adults with chronic idiopathic constipation who have not experienced relief of their bowel symptoms by using laxative therapies at the recommended dosage for at least one month.
First of its kind mechanism of action
Vibrant uses gentle vibrations to stimulate the colon mechanically, causing a local effect on natural peristalsis.
The colon’s biological clock appears to be altered in patients with chronic idiopathic constipation
Vibrant’s timed stimulation is optimized to deliver vibrations based on these alterations, which helps the colon contract mechanically in synch with its biological clock.
Efficacy and Safety of the Non-Pharmaceutical Vibrant® System for Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (CIC):
Randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled, phase III trial
Conclusions
The Vibrant System significantly improved stool frequency, other bowel and abdominal symptoms and quality of life in patients with CIC. These benefits were seen soon after the initiation of therapy and were sustained with no significan’t adverse events.
Vibrant provides a novel, non-pharmacological, intraluminal therapy which is efficacious, safe and well tolerated in patients with CIC.
