Amaç: Bu çalışmada süt çocuklarında fonksiyonel gastrointestinal hastalıklardan (FGİH) fonksiyonel kabızlık, fonksiyonel ishal ve infantil kolik sıklığı ve bu hastalıkların beslenme alışkanlıkları ile ilişkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya, çocuk sağlığı ve hastalıkları polikliniğine ve acil polikliniğine 15 Şubat 2019 ile 31 Mayıs 2019 tarihleri arasında başvuran 4–24 aylık 400 hasta dahil edildi. Çalışmaya bilinen kronik hastalığı olmayan, D vitamini ve demir profilaksisi dışında vitamin veya iştah arttırıcı ilaç desteği almayan hastalar dahil edildi. Anket form aracılığıyla hastaların sosyo-demografik özellikleri ve beslenme özellikleri sorgulandı. İnfantil kolik, fonksiyonel ishal ve fonksiyonel kabızlık açısından şüpheli bulunan hastalar ROME-IV tanı ölçütlerine göre değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen 400 hastanın %24.2 (n=97)’sinde infantil kolik, %5.8 (n=23)’inde fonksiyonel kabızlık, %2.5 (n=10)’inde fonksiyonel ishal olduğu belirlenmiştir. İnfantil koliği olan ve fonksiyonel kabızlığı olan grupta sezaryen ile doğum oranının fazla olduğu saptandı (sırasıyla, p=0.008, p=0.032). D vitamini profilaksisini düzenli kullanan hastalarda infantil kolik görülme sıklığının daha az olduğu saptanırken (p=0.032), fonksiyonel kabızlığı olanlarda D vitamini kullanımı daha düşük bulundu (p=0.001).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, infantil kolik süt çocuklarında görülen en sık FGİH olarak bulundu, ikinci sırada ise fonksiyonel kabızlık vardı. Fonksiyonel ishal ve fonksiyonel kabızlık olan hastalarda karbonhidrattan zengin beslenme oranının yüksek olduğu tespit edildi.
Objective: In this study was to evaluate the frequency of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) including functional constipation, functional diarrhea and infantile colic, and the relationship between these diseases and nutritional practices.
Material and Methods: The study included 400 patients (4–24 months old) that applied to the pediatric health and diseases outpatient clinic or emergency clinic between 15 February 2019 and 31 May 2019. Patients without chronic diseases and who did not receive vitamin or appetite-enhancing medications other than vitamin D and iron were included in the study. The socio-demographic and nutritional characteristics of the patients were evaluated through a questionnaire. Patients suspected of having infantile colic, functional diarrhea and functional constipation were evaluated with the ROME-IV diagnostic criteria.
Results: Among 400 patients, 24.2% (n = 97) had infantile colic, 5.8% (n = 23) had functional constipation, and 2.5% (n = 10) had functional diarrhea. In those with infantile colic or functional constipation, cesarean delivery rate was found to be higher than those without (p = 0.008 and p = 0.032, respectively). The frequency of infantile colic was found to be lower in recipients of vitamin D prophylaxis (p = 0.032), and vitamin D use frequency was lower in those with functional constipation (p = 0.001).
Conclusion: In our study, infantile colic was the most common FGID seen in infants, while functional constipation was the second. A higher rate of carbohydrate-rich nutrition was identified in patients with functional diarrhea.
