Abstract

Objective. Identification and assessment of socio-behavioral risk factors for the formation of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) among military personnel and members of their families (ARC). Material and technique. IBS was diagnosed according to Rome IV criteria. The level of emotional stress (ES) on the Rider scale. A total of 1977 cadets (aged 17–22) were examined. 326 officers (aged 24–55) and 257 of their wives (aged 23–51). Results and discussion. The detection rate of IBS among SCD varies from 18.7±2.2 to 22.2±2.6% (P > 0.05). IBS-C (constipation) is most often detected than IBS-D (diarrhea), because patients with diarrhea are more likely to visit doctors and receive treatment. In general, the medical negotiability of patients is poor and averages 30.7±2.3%, and 37.3±2.4% of patients carry out self-treatment, another 32.0±2.3% of patients tolerate the clinical manifestations of IBS (P > 0.05). When IBS is combined with other syndromes, medical negotiability increases to 62.1±9.2%. During the period of adaptation to the conditions of life and study at the school, the level of strong ES in cadets increases to 32.3±2.3%, as adaptation (after 4 years) it decreases to 3.4±1.1% (P < 0.001) . The incidence of IBS is higher in patients with poor housing conditions, incomplete marital status and tobacco addiction. Conclusion. Effective management of the identified socio-behavioral risk factors for the formation of IBS can significantly reduce the risk of SCD and their families with IBS.
