Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Effectiveness of Web-based instructions

    Determine the effectiveness of Web-based instructions patients in preparing for colonoscopy by comparing the percentage of patients that achieved an excellent Boston Bowel Preparation Score when following the web-based instructions compared to historical control of paper written instructions.
