Brief Summary

Adequate bowel preparation is critical for successful colonoscopy and a large volume of PEG was required for bowel preparation in patients undergoing colonoscopy. The investigators conducted a a prospective, randomized, controlled study to compare low dose of oral magnesium sulfate solution with high dose PEG. The investigators found that patients who took low dose of oral magnesium sulfate solution had similar bowel preparation quality to patients who took PEG,but accompanied with fewer adverse events and better tolerance.

Study Arms (2)

split-dose of Magnesium Sulfate solution

EXPERIMENTAL

Those assigned to MSS group were instructed to take 30ml of 50% magnesium sulfate solution and then drink 600ml water on the evening before colonoscopy. 70ml of 50% MMS and then 1500ml water was taken at least 4 hours before procedure on the colonoscopy day.

Other: split-dose of Magnesium Sulfate solution

split-dose of PEG

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients in PEG group were instructed to take first dose of 1.5L PEG on the evening before colonoscopy and take the second dose of 1.5L PEG at least 4 hours before the colonoscopy procedure on the morning.

Other: split-dose of PEG

Interventions
