Brief Summary
The goal of this \[clinical trial\] is to \[explore the balance time point between the waiting time for intestinal preparation after gastric emptying and quality of bowel preparation.\] in \[patients with painless colonoscopy\]. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: \[whether the gastric is empty or not 2 hours after finishing drinking 1.5 L of MgSO4 solution within 2 hours\] \[whether the quality of patients' bowel preparation is superior in a time period of 2-4 hours after finishing drinking 1.5 L of MgSO4 solution\] Participants will \[ be asked finishing the last dose of 1.5 L MgSO4 solution within 2 hours and received ultrasound gastric assessment immediately 2 or 4 hours after finishing drinking MgSO4 solution in a 15 minutes time interval until the gastric is empty. As soon as the gastric is empty, patients receive painless colonoscopy within 2 hours or 2-4 hours. Researchers will compare \[patients receiving painless colonoscopy within 2 hours or 2-4 hours after finishing drinking 1.5 L of MgSO4 solution\] to see if \[the quality of patients' bowel preparation is superior in a time period of within 2 hours\].

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Boston bowel preparation quality scale
Using Boston bowel preparation quality scale: 3 score, the intestinal cleaning range is more than 90%, no fecal residue, clear vision, or only some clear liquid exists; 2 score, The intestinal cleaning range was 75% to 90%, only a small amount of intestinal residue or fecal water remained, which had no effect on the examination and observation; 1 score,fecal residue or fecal water exists in more intestinal segments, and can continue to enter the lens after rinsing with water; 0 score: There are more fecal residues in the intestinal cavity, and it is impossible to continue the examination. According to the above scoring criteria, the intestinal cleanliness of the left colon, transverse colon and right colon were scored respectively. The total score ≥6 was considered to be good intestinal preparation. The total score \< 6 points was considered that the intestinal preparation was poor.
five minutes after finishing colonoscopy examination
full stomach rate after finishing MgSO4 solution under different waiting time
recording full stomach rate using gastric ultrasound
2 or 4 hours after finishing taking MgSO4 solution
Secondary Outcomes (2)
The rate of ileum intubation while performing colonoscopy
while performing colonoscopy
the detection rate of polyp and adenoma while performing colonoscopy
while performing colonoscopy
Study Arms (2)
colonoscopy within 2-4 h
EXPERIMENTALPatients received ultrasound gastric assessment every 15 minutes 2 hours immediately after taking the last dose of MgSO4 solution. During this period, if the gastric ultrasound assessment showed that the patient had an "empty stomach", and painless colonoscopy was performed within 2 hours while the gastric is empty.
colonoscopy within 4-6 h
NO INTERVENTIONThe patients received ultrasound gastric assessment every 15min 4h immediately after taking the last dose of MgSO4 solution on the examination day, and colonoscopy was to completed within 4-6h after taking the MgSO4 solution if the gastric ultrasound assessment showed that the patient had an "empty stomach".
Interventions
Patients received gastric ultrasound examination every 15 minutes 2 or 4 hours immediately after taking the last dose of MgSO4 solution in group A or B respectively.
