Age >/= 18 and </= 80 years
Chronic Antibiotic-Dependent Pouchitis: Recurrent symptoms of pouchitis (frequency, urgency, bleeding, abdominal pain or cramping, or pelvic discomfort) that respond to antibiotic therapy but relapse shortly after stopping antibiotics, thus necessitating continuous antibiotic therapy to achieve symptom control.
Chronic Antibiotic Refractory Pouchitis: Lack of response to standard antibiotic therapy, requirement of a longer duration of antibiotic therapy than expected with minimal improvement in symptoms, in association with typical symptoms of pouchitis (frequency, urgency, bleeding, abdominal pain or cramping, or pelvic discomfort).
