About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Single-blind Study Evaluating Individual Approach on Bowel Preparation Quality for Colonoscopy

This is a prospective, randomized, single-blind study designed to evaluate the influence of individual approach on bowel preparation quality for colonoscopy. The investigators compare split-dose polyethylene glycol solution (PEG, Fortrans, Beaufour Ipsen) to modified split-dose PEG regarding predictors of inadequate preparation for colonoscopy.

Read the detailed description

Up to 22% of patients are not good prepared for colonoscopy and it is caused of aborted procedures and increased costs. There are identified predictors of inadequate bowel preparation before colonoscopy, but we still don't know if an individual approach improve the quality of preparation.

Being tested
individual preparation for colonoscopy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • individual preparation for colonoscopyOther

    The volume of polyethylene glycol solution depends on risk factors presented in each patient. Time of administration of second dose will be confirmed according to the time of colonoscopy. In case of constipation an enema before colonoscopy will be administered. All patients will give educational booklet of preparation before colonoscopy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the index of preparation quality for the whole colon

    the percentage of patients with adequate bowel preparation; adequate preparation is defined as excellent, good and fair, inadequate is defined as poor or unprepared colon according to the Ottawa bowel preparation scale

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. compliance safety

    number of patients with completion of preparation number of patients with side effects of preparation in each group

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing individual preparation for colonoscopy in people with Split-dose Bowel Preparation and Polyethylene Glycol Solution, run by Maria Sklodowska-Curie National Research Institute of Oncology at 1 site in Poland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the index of preparation quality for the whole colon (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Apr 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
