Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Colon Cleanliness during colonoscopy according to Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS)

    The primary study outcome is the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) score evaluating during colonoscopy. The BBPS is a valid scale for measuring bowel preparation as well as colonoscopy outcomes, as it reflects the colon's cleanliness during the inspection phase of the procedure.

    Per patient: the end of procedure; For study: approx. 10 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Subject's Attitude: rating the preparation procedure with respect to ease, convenience and comfort

    Per patient: the end of procedure; For study: approx. 10 months

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Duration of colonoscopy examination

    Per patient: the end of procedure; For study: approx. 10 months

Study Arms (2)

Hydrocolonic cleansing

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects undergo colon cleansing by hydrotherapy with the study device

Device: Colon cleansing by hydrotherapy

Standard preparation solution

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects undergo colon cleansing by standard preparation solution

Device: Colon cleansing by hydrotherapy

Interventions

The Angel of Water™ system will be used for hydrotherapy of the colon in adult subjects scheduled for elective colonoscopy.

Also known as: The Angel of Water™, a colon hydrotherapy system.
