About this study

Official title: The Effect of Routine Video-recording on Colonoscopy Quality Indicators: a Cluster Randomized Trial.

Routine video recording of the colonoscopy examination has been proposed as a simple and easy to implement method that could improve the quality of colonoscopy. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether implementation of routine video recording of screening colonoscopy withdrawal is effective as a means of supporting quality performance of colonoscopy. The study will be performed in 8 screening centers within the framework of a national colonoscopy screening program in Poland (the Polish Colonoscopy Screening Platform; PCSP). Individuals aged 55-64 years are eligible to participate in the PCSP. In the run-in period colonoscopy quality measures will be monitored through a dedicated joint database. Then eligible screening centres will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the video recording group or the control group. Screening centres assigned to the video recording group will receive videorecorders and DVDs and will be asked to video record all screening colonoscopies (only withdrawal). Control group will be allowed to record colonoscopies on demand only. Then , the colonoscopy quality measures will again be monitored through a dedicated joint database. All the recorded DVDs will be reviewed to verify ceacal intubation and withdrawal time by the PCSP team.

What participants receive

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

  • Implementation of routine videorecordingProcedure or surgery

    All screening centres (clusters) assigned to the routine video recording group will receive an appropriate number of video recorders and DVDs for each colonoscopy room. Screening centre coordinators will be responsible for the implementation of routine video recording of all screening colonoscopies (only withdrawal) in the centres. Every three months screening centre coordinators will be asked to send back all recorded DVDs. All the recorded DVDs will be reviewed to verify ceacal intubation and withdrawal time by the PCSP team and then stored.

  • No routine videorecordingBehavioural

    Screening centres (clusters) assigned to the control group will not receive video recorders and DVDs but will be allowed to record colonoscopies on demand.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in screening centre adenoma detection rate before and after intervention

    Proportion of patients with at least one adenoma identified (measured in screening program database).

    Measured: From the time of randomization up to 10 months (the end of screening program annual edition)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Reported and audited ceacal intubation rates

    Proportion of complete colonoscopies (measured in screening program database; audited ceacal intubation rates will be assessed through videorecording review)

    Measured: From the time of randomization up to 10 months (the end of screening program annual edition)

  2. Rates of painful colonoscopy

    Severe or moderate pain on a four point verbal rating scale (measured in screening program database)

    Measured: From the time of randomization up to 10 months (the end of screening program annual edition)

  3. Rates of proximal (to the splenic flexure) serrated polyps ≥10mm in size

    Measured in screening program database.

    Measured: From the time of randomization up to 10 months (the end of screening program annual edition)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Implementation of routine videorecording and No routine videorecording in people with Colorectal Cancer, 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 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Change in screening centre adenoma detection rate before and after intervention (time frame: From the time of randomization up to 10 months (the end of screening program annual edition)). 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 5 Aug 2015.
