ABSTRACT
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by recurrent abdominal pain combined with changes in bowel habits, which can be costly and potentially life-impairing. The recurring and persistent symptoms of IBS disease can significantly affect patients’ quality of life. In their daily practices, nurses often encounter patients who seek healthcare to manage their IBS, as well as patients who initially seek help for other illnesses but also have IBS symptoms. By considering the causes of IBS and the symptoms that people with IBS may experience, nurses should provide education to the patients and their families about lifestyle changes. They should also implement available pharmacological treatments for IBS and evidence-based nursing interventions for issues such as diet, stress and anxiety management, to be able to improve the underlying and contributing factors to IBS.
