Summary

This study aims to create a new tool called OIME that uses body signals like heart rate, sweat, and muscle activity to measure abdominal pain. Researchers will test it on 120 people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find a more objective way to assess pain, which could help improve treatment for IBS.
