MOWOOT Device to Treat Constipation in Adults

"The MOWOOT massager belt is connected to the desktop device and is the component which is in contact with the subject giving the abdominal massage action.~The massager belt, which is placed on the user's abdominal area, administers a specific abdominal massage on the ascendant and descendent segments of the colon. This massage emulates the techniques used by professional therapists through a series of pneumatic actuators operating like the movement of a wave transmitting movement through the colon. The type and speed of the massage can usually be regulated by an algorithm that controls the operation from the desktop device.~For the present clinical trial, time and force will stay fixed on 20 minutes and force 3 (0'6-0'7 bar). Subjects will not be able to choose other massage options. Subjects should use the MOWOOT device once a day for 20 min (1 complete treatment) ideally at the same hour every day for the 4 weeks of the interventional treatment period."
