Brief Summary
This study is designed as an open, prospective, non-controlled, qualitative, multicentre study of a novel transanal irrigation system performed in a population of 150 subjects suffering from spinal cord injury and confirmed neurological bowel dysfunction. The study is expected to last for a total of 1 year (treatment period) with a planned 12- month recruitment period and three scheduled site visits.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in neurogenic bowel disfunction symptoms.
1\. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate change in neurogenic bowel dysfunction symptoms between baseline and 3 months use of the Navina™ Smart system, as measured by a patient friendly version of the validated instrument NBD Score.
3 months
Secondary Outcomes (11)
Change of QoL status
Baseline, 3-months, 12-months
NBD symptoms

- +6 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Navina Smart
EXPERIMENTALNavina Smart will be used during 12 months for transanal irrigation (TAI).
Interventions
Subjects treatment-naïve to transanal irrigation (TAI). Frequency of TAI will be tailored to each subject.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Provision of informed consent.
- Male or female aged 18 years or older.
- Patient with previously confirmed chronic spinal cord injury, either:
- Traumatic; at any level and any completeness of injury and ASIA grade classification, or
- Non-traumatic; due to infection, inflammation (i.e.; transverse myelitis or ischaemic myelitis), compromised blood supply, a post-ischemic state, etc.
- At least 3 months post spinal cord injury at time of consent.
- NBD score ≥10, confirmed at Baseline .
- Only TAI treatment - naïve patient (not having previously used any particular transanal irrigation system, e.g. Peristeen®).
- Confirmed NBD refractory to conservative therapy and judged eligible for transanal irrigation as per standardised treatment pathway 18.
- Able to handle smartphone/tablet.
You may not qualify if:
- Any confirmed or suspected diagnosis of anal or rectal stenosis, active inflammatory bowel disease, acute diverticulitis, severe diverticulosis, colorectal cancer, ischemic colitis, history of life-threatening autonomic dysreflexia, bleeding disorders, unspecified peri-anal conditions.
- Untreated rectal impaction.
- Any radiotherapy to the pelvis.
- Any current treatment with anticoagulants (not including aspirin or clopidogrel).
- Any current treatment with long-term systemic steroid medication (not including inhalation agents and/or local topical treatment).
- Current use of prokinetics.
- Any prior rectal or colonic surgery (not including anal procedures \>3 months ago, e.g. haemorrhoid excision).
- Anal, rectal and/or colonic endoscopic polypectomy within the previous 4 weeks.
- Overt or planned pregnancy.
- Ongoing symptomatic UTI as judged by investigator.
- Diagnosed psychiatric illness, considered as unstable by the investigator.
- Diagnosed with MS.
- Involvement in the planning and conduct of the study (applies to both WHC staff and staff at the study site).
- Previous enrolment in the present study.
- Simultaneous participation in another clinical study that may interfere with the present study.
