The guideline incorporates Cochrane reviews, published NICE clinical and public health guidance, Health Technology Assessment reports, systematic and health economic reviews produced by the National Collaborating Centre for Nursing and Supportive Care. Recommendations are based on clinical and cost effectiveness evidence, and where this is insufficient, the GDG used all available information sources and experience to make consensus recommendations using nominal group technique.">

<meta name="warning" content="Update information March 2017 Recommendation 1.1.1.2 in the short version was updated by NICE with more recent guidance on recognition and referral for suspected cancer. Recommendation 1.1.1.3 in the short version was removed as it was no longer needed after the changes to recommendation 1.1.1.2. February 2015 NICE has made new recommendations relating to the clinical management (dietary and lifestyle advice, and pharmacological therapy) of people with IBS. The recommendations and evidence in sections 3, 7.6, 8.4, 8.5.2 and 9.1 of this guideline that have been highlighted in grey have been stood down and replaced. New recommendations on dietary and lifestyle advice, and pharmacological therapy, can be found in the irritable bowel syndrome in adults update CG61.1. September 2012 A recommendation in this guideline (see pages 28 and 37) has been partially updated by recommendation 1.1.2.1 in 'Ovarian cancer' (NICE clinical guideline 122, 2011).">

Recommendation 1.1.1.3 in the short version was removed as it was no longer needed after the changes to recommendation 1.1.1.2. February 2015 NICE has made new recommendations relating to the clinical management (dietary and lifestyle advice, and pharmacological therapy) of people with IBS. The recommendations and evidence in sections 3, 7.6, 8.4, 8.5.2 and 9.1 of this guideline that have been highlighted in grey have been stood down and replaced. New recommendations on dietary and lifestyle advice, and pharmacological therapy, can be found in the irritable bowel syndrome in adults update CG61.1. September 2012 A recommendation in this guideline (see pages 28 and 37) has been partially updated by recommendation 1.1.2.1 in 'Ovarian cancer' (NICE clinical guideline 122, 2011).</strong></p><div class="main-content lit-style"><div class="fm-sec bkr_bottom_sep"><div class="bkr_thumb"><a href="http://www.rcn.org.uk/" title="Royal College of Nursing (UK)" class="img_link icnblk_img" ref="pagearea=logo&targetsite=external&targetcat=link&targettype=publisher"><img class="source-thumb" src="/corehtml/pmc/pmcgifs/bookshelf/thumbs/th-nicecg61-lrg.png" alt="Cover of Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Adults" /></a></div><div class="bkr_bib"><h1 id="_NBK51953_"><span itemprop="name">Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Adults</span></h1><div class="subtitle">Diagnosis and Management of Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Primary Care</div><p><i>NICE Clinical Guidelines, No. 61</i></p><p class="contrib-group"><h4>Authors</h4><span itemprop="author">National Collaborating Centre for Nursing and Supportive Care (UK)</span>.</p><div class="half_rhythm">London: <a href="http://www.rcn.org.uk/" ref="pagearea=meta&targetsite=external&targetcat=link&targettype=publisher"><span itemprop="publisher">Royal College of Nursing (UK)</span></a>; <span itemprop="datePublished">2008 Feb</span>.</div><div><a href="/books/about/copyright/">Copyright</a> © 2008, Royal College of Nursing.</div><a class="btn wsprkl bkr_rd" href="/books/n/nicecg61/nicecg61.guideline/?report=reader">Read</a></div><div class="bkr_clear"></div></div><div class="bkr_bottom_sep bkr_bottom_margin body-content whole_rhythm"><div itemprop="description"><h2>Excerpt</h2><p>This guideline covers areas relevant to the diagnosis and management of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) reflecting the complete patient journey, from the person presenting with IBS symptoms, positive diagnosis and management, targeted at symptom control. The guideline incorporates Cochrane reviews, published NICE clinical and public health guidance, Health Technology Assessment reports, systematic and health economic reviews produced by the National Collaborating Centre for Nursing and Supportive Care.
