NCT03902561

Brief Summary

The main purpose of the study is to determine risk factors of poor bowel cleansing in inpatients after a split-dose high volume preparation with 4 liters of polyethylene glycol. The quality of colon cleansing will be measured by the Boston bowel cleansing scale (more than or equal to 2 points in each segment). The secondary aim is to design a predictive score of poor bowel cleansing.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The validated Boston Bowel Preparation Scale will be used to measure colon cleansing quality

    The Boston Bowel Preparation Scale scores cleansing quality from 0 to 3 points per segment (distal colon, transverse colon and right colon). The maximum score is 9 and the lowest 0. A score equal or more than 2 points per segment is considered an adequate preparation for this segment.

    8 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To design a predictive score of inadequate bowel preparation [Time Frame: 1 years][Designated as safety issue: No]

    8 months

Interventions

All the inpatients with indication of colonoscopy will be prepared with 4 liters polyethylene glycol bowel cleansing prior to colonoscopy. Colonoscopy will be performed as regular practice under conscious sedation.

Also known as: 4 liters of Polyethylene glycol bowel preparation

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

The researchers will offer to participate in the study to inpatients scheduled for colonoscopy who meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. The researchers will explain the purpose of the study and will ask to sign the informed consent. They will give verbal and written information on the diet and the bowel cleansing solution to be taken. A questionnaire will be administered about predictors of inadequate bowel cleansing. Activity will be measured by using a pedometer and a physical performance test. Patients will take a liquid diet the day before the examination and they will be prepared with 4 liters of polyethylene glycol in split-dose regimen: 2 liters the evening before the examination (at 19.00 hours) and 2 liters 5 hours before colonoscopy

You may qualify if:

  • Inpatients with an indication of a colonoscopy
  • Age ≥ 18 years.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with previous colon surgery
  • Last colonoscopy with poor bowel preparation.
  • Ileus, intestinal obstruction, megacolon.
  • Poorly controlled hypertension (Systolic and diastolic blood pressure \> 180 and \> 100, respectively).
  • Terminal renal failure (pre-dialysis or dialysis).
  • Congestive heart failure (NYHA III-IV).
  • Acute liver failure.
  • Severe psychiatric illness.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Refusal to participate in the study.
