Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Boston Bowel Preparation Scale

    Cleanliness of the colon during colonoscopy will be evaluated by the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale which is a 4-point scoring system applied to each of 3 broad regions of the colon: the right side, the transverse section, and the left side. The total BBPS score ranged from 0 to 9. If total BostonBowel Preparation Score ≥6 with each segmental BBPS≥2, we regard it as adequate bowel preparation.

    during colonoscopy

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Adenoma Detection Rate

    2 days

  • Rate of adverse events

    2 days

  • Cecal intubation rate

    during colonoscopy

  • Cecal intubation time

  • Withdrawal time

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

PEG (low-risk patients and high-risk patients)

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The dosing regimen of low-risk patients and high-risk patients will only be PEG.

Drug: PEG

PEG+lactulose (low-risk patients and high-risk patients)

EXPERIMENTAL

The dosing regimen of low-risk patients and high-risk patients will be PEG combined with lactulose.

Drug: PEG+lactulose

Interventions

PEGDRUG

Patients began to drink 1 L of PEG at 8:00 PM on the day before colonoscopy at a rate of 250 mL every 10- 15 minutes. On the day of the procedure, patients took the remaining 2 L of PEG 4-6 hours before colonoscopy.

Also known as: only used PEG
PEG (low-risk patients and high-risk patients)

On the day before colonoscopy , Patients took 45 mL lactulose solution at 7:00 PM. And then Patients began to drink 1 L of PEG at 8:00 PM at a rate of 250 mL every 10- 15 minutes. On the day of the procedure, patients took 45 mL lactulose solution and the remaining 2 L of PEG 4-6 hours before colonoscopy.

Also known as: PEG combined with lactulose
PEG+lactulose (low-risk patients and high-risk patients)
