NCT03763266

Brief Summary

Colonoscopy is the gold-standard for the evaluation of the colorectal mucosa. Colonoscopy quality indicators are the adenoma detection rate, the rate of cecal intubation and the bowel preparation. The role of diet in preparing for colonoscopy is not fully established. Currently there is not enough evidence available to choice between 3 days of low residue diet versus 1 day. The research hypothesis is that the low residue diet offers a non-inferior bowel preparation and an improved tolerance.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Bowel preparation

    Measured with the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale from 0 until 9. 9 represents an excellent preparation.

    During the colonoscopy

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Diet tolerance

    It is reported before entering the endoscopy room. Regarding the 3 or 1 days on low fiber diet depending on which study group is the participant.

  • Preparation tolerance

    It is reported before entering the endoscopy room. Regarding the 3 or 1 day on bowel preparation depending on which study group is the participant.

  • Adenoma detection rate

    up to 2 weeks after colonoscopy depending on pathology department workload.

  • Endoscopic diagnosis

    It is assessed during the colonoscopy and will be reported the same day.

  • Cecum intubation rate

    It will be calculated through study completion, approximately 1 year, for all the study period using all participants having the colonoscopy done

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

1 day low residue diet

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients are instructed to complete a low residue diet exclusively one day prior the colonoscopy.

Other: 1 day low residue diet

3 days low residue diet

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients are instructed to complete a low residue diet three days prior the colonoscopy.

Other: 3 day low residue diet

Interventions

Patients are interviewed and instructed by a nurse prior the colonoscopy. They receive oral and written dietary information. In case of morbidity associated with bad preparation they are given bisacodyl the night before the colonoscopy.

Also known as: low fiber diet
1 day low residue diet

Patients are interviewed and instructed by a nurse prior the colonoscopy. They receive oral and written dietary information. In case of morbidity associated with bad preparation they are given bisacodyl the night before the colonoscopy.

Also known as: low fiber diet
