Brief Summary

Water exchange (WE) is an effective insertion method to minimize insertion discomfort and maximize ADR. It is characterized by infusing water to guide insertion in an airless lumen with suctioning of infused water during insertion and almost complete removal of the infused water when cecal intubation is achieved. A modified Delphi review reported water exchange showed the highest overall ADR, ADR in screening cases, and in the right side of the colon compared with water immersion and air (or CO2) insufflation. One of the plausible mechanisms of improving ADR by water exchange is salvage cleaning during insertion, which might help artificial intelligence by removing the interference of fecal debris and bubbles. However, no RCT has been performed to evaluate the effect of CADe on WE colonoscopy. Therefore, investigators will conduct a RCT comparing the ADR of CADe assisted colonoscopy inserted with either WE or insufflation. Our hypothesis will be that CADe assisted WE colonoscopy achieves higher ADR than CADe assisted air insufflation colonoscopy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • adenoma detection rate

    proportion of patients with at least one colorectal adenoma detected among all patients examined by an endoscopist

    During each colonoscopy procedure

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • false positive rate

    During each colonoscopy procedure

Study Arms (2)

Water exchange

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This group of participants receives water exchange colonoscopy with the computer-aided polyp detection system.

Device: Colonoscopy with water exchange or air insufflation methods

Air insufflation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This group of participants receives air insufflation colonoscopy the computer-aided polyp detection system.

Device: Colonoscopy with water exchange or air insufflation methods

Interventions

Using computer-aided polyp detection algorithm on colonoscopy with water exchange or air insufflation methods. This computer-aided algorithm does not intervene directly the colonoscopy procedure.
