Bowel PreparationNCT02093156
A Predictive Score Identifies Patients With Inadequate Bowel Preparation for Colonoscopy
An observational study of Bowel Preparation and Ottawa Score, run by Air Force Military Medical University, China at 2 sites in China.
Trial summary
Colonoscopy is the current standard method for evaluating the colorectal diseases. Adequate bowel preparation is essential for optimal visualization of the colorectal mucosa. However, inadequate bowel preparation (IBP) had been unexpectedly reported in up to 30% of patients undergoing colonoscopy. Read more about this study

About this study
Colonoscopy is the current standard method for evaluating the colorectal diseases. Adequate bowel preparation is essential for optimal visualization of the colorectal mucosa. However, inadequate bowel preparation (IBP) had been unexpectedly reported in up to 30% of patients undergoing colonoscopy. Many factors may influence the quality of bowel preparation, which can be broadly categorized as patient-related or procedure-related. It has been shown that split-dose regimen or some modified educational strategies can improve the quality of bowel preparation. For the patients with possible IBP before the performing of colonoscopy, it may be better to repeat bowel preparation with modified or enhanced strategies in case of failed intubation, missed lesions or unnecessarily increased cost. Thus, it is important to set up a model to predict the quality of bowel preparation individually.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Bowel preparation instructionsOther
The same-day preparation method was used as previously reported. Briefly, all patients were instructed to have a regular diet for breakfast and lunch, but only clear liquids for dinner on the day before the colonoscopy. They were asked to drink two bags of PEG-ELP (polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder) dissolved in 2 L of water, or 45 mL of sodium phosphate be diluted in 240 mL of cool water follow with at least 1.5 L of water at 05:00-06:00 h within 2 h on the day of colonoscopy. Patients were encouraged to drink more clear liquids after purgatives for adequate hydration before colonoscopy.

| training cohort | the training cohort was used to establish the bowel preparation score (BPS) Receives: Other: Bowel preparation instructions | |
| validation cohort | the validation cohort was used to verify the BPS (bowel preparation score) Receives: Other: Bowel preparation instructions |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Adequate bowel preparation quality at the time of colonoscopy defined by Ottawa score<6
Ottawa score:A)cleanliness of each part of the colon: 0=excellent 1=good 2=fair 3=poor 4=inadequate B)fluid in whole colon: small=0 moderate=1 large=2
The bowel preparation was considered inadequate if (1) inadequate visualization on colonoscopy defined by Ottawa score≥6; (2) the colonoscopy was cancelled because of poor bowel preparation or personal reasons.
Measured: up to 4 months
Secondary outcomes (1)
Polyp detection rate
The proportion of participants with at least one polyp in each group
Measured: up to 4 months

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 20 Mar 2014.
