The relationship between rectal pain, unpleasantness, and urge to defecate in normal subjects
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Rectal stimulation under normal or pathological conditions evokes numerous sensations. Previous studies have examined rectal stimulation-evoked pain and urge to defecate, but discrepancies in the findings remain because of the different methodologies used in each study and the reporting of sensations only at the end of or after the applied stimuli. Therefore, we conducted a psychophysical study of various aspects of rectal sensation in normal subjects using a variety of distension stimuli and continuous on-line rating of sensation. Ten normal healthy subjects (eight female and two male) were given rectal distension stimuli delivered by a computer-driven barostat. For some experiments, sensation was continuously monitored and rated on a visual analog scale. Subjects first underwent an ascending series of phasic (30 s) distensions to determine how urge, unpleasantness, and pain intensity varied and interrelated as rectal volume and pressure changed. A second series of distensions examined rectal physiology and perception during short phasic (30 s) or long (300 s) distensions at pressures that elicit either moderate urge or moderate pain and while continuously rating these sensations. The McGill Pain Questionnaire was used to assess the multidimensional aspects of rectal pain with each type of distension. The results of the ascending series revealed significant relationships between sensations as pressure and volume increased. The ratings of urge were double that of pain and unpleasantness, whereas unpleasantness and pain ratings were comparable. Isobaric phasic and tonic distensions were associated with an increase in volume (i.e. accommodation) with time. The magnitude of urge with repetitive short isobaric (30 s) distensions was overall not related to the slight increase in rectal volume, while phasic distensions at moderate pain intensity revealed a significant overall relationship between rectal volume and both unpleasantness and pain intensity. Long isobaric distensions evoked sensations that varied over time despite progressive increases in volume, but less variation in sensation was observed during short phasic distensions which also demonstrated a similar increase in rectal volume. Differences in temporal characteristics of sensations evoked by low-pressure distensions eliciting moderate urge versus high-pressure distensions eliciting moderate pain were illustrated by a significantly longer delay to the diminution of non-painful urge versus pain. Therefore, we conclude (1) Differences in the discrimination and the temporal characteristics of urge at subpainful rectal pressures and of pain at noxious pressures suggest that noxious and non-noxious stimuli are processed differently. (2) The overall unpleasantness and pain correlate with rectal volume during accommodation. However, instantaneous evoked sensations can vary independent of volume changes during constant pressure distension. (3) The reported sensation-related responses to tension and stretch will likely be different depending on the degree of accommodation that is occurring. Moreover, the peripheral receptor mechanisms which contribute to controlling this accommodation will also affect the perception of rectal stimuli. (4) Continuous ratings of rectal sensations are valuable in investigating rectal physiology and the multidimensional nature of rectal symptoms.
