Ítem Acceso Abierto Terapia cognitiva conductual en el síndrome de intestino irritable(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Constantine Rodas, Paula Bernarda; Aldás Erazo, Manuel Rafael; 0150662872Irritable bowel syndrome is considered a chronic functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by intense abdominal pain and changes in stool frequency and shape due to disruption of the gut-brain communication function caused by emotional and cognitive factors. The pathology leads to motility abnormalities and visceral hypersensitivity, which is, therefore, compromising the patient's quality of life. For resolution, there is cognitive-behavioral therapy that reduces symptoms. However, it should be necessary to specify in which aspects the improvement is produced in the sick patient since there are not enough studies. The research was conducted as a literature review, in which information was collected from bibliographic databases, such as Web of Science, PubMed, Elsevier, and Scopus, in articles published in English and Spanish within the last five years. In conclusion, spastic colon disease encompasses mental disorders that influence the natural evolution and complications of the disease. Therefore, cognitive-behavioral therapy would be effective since it teaches emotion-processing skills.
