The Wexner Constipation Score is a structured symptom score used to quantify chronic constipation severity over multiple domains including bowel frequency, evacuation difficulty, incomplete evacuation, assistance needs, and symptom duration.
Formula: Wexner score is the sum of 8 symptom domains, each 0-4 (total range 0-30).
Higher scores represent more severe constipation burden and may support escalation of evaluation/treatment strategy.
Use in chronic constipation assessment, specialist referral baseline documentation, and longitudinal symptom monitoring.
The score is symptom-based and subjective, and should be interpreted with bowel history, medication review, and alarm symptom assessment.
For related assessments, see Bristol Stool Scale, Water Intake and Protein Intake.
