Influence
of Body Position on Defecation in Humans
Summary: This medical study
compares three positions for defecation by measuring abdominal pressure and the
anorectal angle simultaneously. It concludes that the greater the hip flexion
achieved by squatting, the straighter the rectoanal canal will be, and
accordingly, less strain will be required for defecation.
Impact Of
Ethnic Habits On Defecographic Measurements
Summary: The main goal of this
study was to compare Iranian and European habits of bowel evacuation on
defecographic measurements. Patients were instructed to defecate using two
types of toilet: an unraised, ground-level style (common in Iran), and a bowl
with attached tank style (common in Western countries). It concluded that the
use of the Iranian-style toilet yielded a much wider anorectal angle, and a
larger distance between the perineum and the horizontal plane of the pelvic
floor than the European style. Bowel evacuation was also more complete using
the Iranian-style toilet.
Comparison
of Straining During Defecation in Three Positions
Summary: The aim of this study was
to compare the straining forces applied when sitting or squatting during
defecation. The study confirmed that sensation of satisfactory bowel emptying in
sitting defecation posture necessitates excessive expulsive effort compared to
the squatting posture.
