Clarke M, Catto-Smith A, King S, Dinning P, Cook I, Chase J, et al.
J Pediatr Surg . 2012 Dec; 47(12):2279-84. PMID: 23217889
Background And Aims: In slow-transit constipation (STC) pancolonic manometry shows significantly reduced antegrade propagating sequences (PS) and no response to physiological stimuli. This study aimed to determine whether transcutaneous electrical...

Leong L, Yik Y, Catto-Smith A, Robertson V, Hutson J, Southwell B
J Pediatr Surg . 2011 Dec; 46(12):2309-12. PMID: 22152871
Aims: Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) was used to treat children with slow-transit constipation (STC) for 1 to 2 months in a randomized controlled trial during 2006 to 2008. We aimed...

Yik Y, Clarke M, Catto-Smith A, Robertson V, Sutcliffe J, Chase J, et al.
Pediatr Surg Int . 2011 Mar; 27(7):705-11. PMID: 21373802
Purpose: Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) speeds up colonic transit in children with slow-transit constipation (STC). This study examined if concurrent upper gastrointestinal dysmotility (UGD) affected response to TES. Methods: Radio-nuclear...

Snodgrass S, Rivett D, Robertson V, Stojanovski E
J Orthop Sports Phys Ther . 2010 Jul; 40(7):392-401. PMID: 20592483
Study Design: Clinical measurement, cross-sectional. Objectives: To compare cervical mobilization forces applied by physiotherapists and students, and the factors associated with forces for each group. Background: Cervical spine joint mobilization...

Snodgrass S, Rivett D, Robertson V, Stojanovski E
Physiotherapy . 2010 Apr; 96(2):120-9. PMID: 20420958
Objectives: Postero-anterior (PA) mobilisation is commonly used in cervical spine treatment and included in physiotherapy curricula. The manual forces that students apply while learning cervical mobilisation are not known. Quantifying...

Ismail K, Chase J, Gibb S, Clarke M, Catto-Smith A, Robertson V, et al.
J Pediatr Surg . 2009 Dec; 44(12):2388-92. PMID: 20006033
Purpose: Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) (3 sessions/wk) over the abdomen stimulated bowel functions in a randomized controlled trial. This pilot study assessed whether daily TES at home with a safe,...

Chase J, Stillman B, Gibb S, Clarke M, Robertson V, Catto-Smith A, et al.
J Gastroenterol Hepatol . 2009 Aug; 24(12):1876-84. PMID: 19686406
Background And Aim: It appears that there are no published reports on childhood slow transit constipation (STC) that have considered the state of the musculoskeletal components of the trunk in...

Snodgrass S, Rivett D, Robertson V, Stojanovski E
Man Ther . 2009 Jul; 15(1):19-25. PMID: 19632877
Purpose: To determine if real-time feedback enables students to apply mobilisation forces to the cervical spine that are similar to an expert physiotherapist. Methods: An instrumented treatment table collected mobilisation...

Hutson J, Chase J, Clarke M, King S, Sutcliffe J, Gibb S, et al.
Pediatr Surg Int . 2009 Apr; 25(5):403-6. PMID: 19396449
Constipation is a common problem in children, with childhood prevalence estimated at between 1 and 30%. It accounts for a significant percentage of referrals to paediatricians and paediatric gastroenterologists. It...

Clarke M, Chase J, Gibb S, Robertson V, Catto-Smith A, Hutson J, et al.
J Pediatr Surg . 2009 Feb; 44(2):408-12. PMID: 19231545
Purpose: Idiopathic slow transit constipation (STC) describes a clinical syndrome characterised by intractable constipation. It is diagnosed by demonstrating delayed colonic transit on nuclear transit studies (NTS). A possible new...
