Summary

Visceral hypersensitivity is frequent in IBS population up to 60% and is correlated with severity and altered quality of life. Sleeping troubles are most frequent in IBS population. Insomnia is a frequent disorder with an important cost for healthcare. Insomnia could decrease pain threshold.

Visceral hypersensitivity was never measure in patients with insomnia. The hypothesis is IBS patients with insomnia probably have lower visceral pain threshold.

The objective is to assess pain threshold during a barostat procedure in in IBS patients with or without insomnia in comparison with healthy volunteers or patients with insomnia.

If the hypothesis are confirmed, insomnia should be look at in IBS patients and its treatments could improve visceral hypersensitivity and IBS symptoms.
