Thabane M et al. – Post–infectious irritable bowel syndrome (PI–IBS) is a common disorder wherein symptoms of IBS begin after an episode of acute gastroenteritis. Individual studies have suggested that risk factors for PI–IBS include patients' demographics, psychological disorders and the severity of enteric illness. However, PI–IBS remains a diagnosis of exclusion with no specific disease markers and, to date, no definitive therapy exists. The prognosis of PI–IBS appears favorable with spontaneous and gradual resolution of symptoms in most patients.
