Summary

This early study tests whether a daily enema made of salt water and glycerin can help children with fecal incontinence stay clean. The trial will include 30 children aged 3 to 16 who have bowel accidents at least once a week due to conditions like corrected anorectal malformation or Hirschsprung disease. Caregivers will give the enema at home each day, and the study will measure how many days the child has no accidents.
