Segmental and total colonic transit time is calculated according to the distribution of the markers in the different segments of the bowel. The transit time is equal to the total number of retained markers divided by the daily dose, which results in a colonic transit time value that is compared with normal values.
The severity of the transit problem is quantifiable by the transit test and the result may be an important variable; it may facilitate the decision on further examination procedures, it effects the choice of therapy and long-term prognosis.
Total transit time (OATT, mouth-to-anus)*: Indicates if colonic transit time is DELAYED, NORMAL or RAPID
Segmental transit time**: Provides information on the type of the delay, i.e. distal or left-sided
Segmental transit time is of interest to evaluate, particularly in patients with delayed transit, because it gives an indication which segment is abnormal; is the function defective in the recto-sigmoid area or is it more widespread in the left colon, or even affecting all parts of colon such as in colonic inertia.
* Colonic transit time (OATT); reference values: Normal transit time corresponds to the range from percentile 5 to percentile 95 in the control material. Reference values based on 199 subjects: 1) Abrahamsson et al, Scand J gastroenterol 1988 Suppl 152:72-80; 2) Sadik et al, Scand J Gastroenterol 2003, 38:36-42; 3) Törnblom et al, data on file, Gastrointest Lab, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Sweden.
** Segmental transit time; upper reference values: Segmental transit times: Abrahamsson et al, Scand J Gastroenterol 1988 Suppl 152:72-80. Percentile 95 calculated per segment in healthy subjects.
Reference values based on 199 subjects; 114 women and 85 men
