About this study
Our study perform In Department of Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University.

Our hypothesis is no different about surgical view in 3 groups and lower side effects in patients in no bowel preparation group.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Soap sus enema (S.S.E.) | Experimental | Patients in S.S.E. group will receive bowel preparation by soap suds enema until clear at night before surgery. Receives: Procedure: Soap suds enema (S.S.E.) |
| sodium chloride enema | Experimental | Patients in unison enema group will receive Unison enema 100 ml per rectal at night before surgery. Receives: Procedure: sodium chloride enema |
| no enema | Placebo comparator | Patients will receive none of bowel preparation. NPO after midnight Receives: Procedure: No enema |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
surgical view and bowel handling in operation
surgeon evaluate surgical view, bowel handling after use swabs for bowel packing and record by nurse and after operation finish surgeon evaluate satisfaction of operation.
Evaluation in operation
- In operation room , surgeon evaluate surgical view, bowel handling after use swabs for bowel packing and record by nurse using visual analog scale score 0 to 10 that depend on surgical view and bowel handling, 0 is the worst surgical view and hardest bowel handling and 10 for extremely good surgical view and easiest bowel handling.
- When the operation finished surgeon evaluate satisfaction of operation .
Measured: 1 day after bowel preparation
Comparing the side effects of soap suds enema group, sodium chloride enema group and the NPO group.
Patients self answers Questionnaire about symptoms by visual analog scale score 0 to 10 that depend on severity of symptoms 0 is no symptoms and 10 most severe symptoms.
Symptoms including headache, nausea, vomiting, thirsty, fatique, anxious, discomfort, abdominal pain , bloating, insomnia, ashamed, fecal incontinence.
Additional questions in morning before surgery are Do you feelng discomfort from these bowel preparation?, do you want to do the same bowel preparation method if you have to do next operation? and do you want to change to other methods?,
Measured: 1 day before surgery and 3 day after surgery

Primary outcome
surgical view and bowel handling in operation
Time frame: 1 day after bowel preparation
surgeon evaluate surgical view, bowel handling after use swabs for bowel packing and record by nurse and after operation finish surgeon evaluate satisfaction of operation. Evaluation in operation 1. In operation room , surgeon evaluate surgical view, bowel handling after use swabs for bowel packing and record by nurse using visual analog scale score 0 to 10 that depend on surgical view and bowel handling, 0 is the worst surgical view and hardest bowel handling and 10 for extremely good surgical view and easiest bowel handling. 2. When the operation finished surgeon evaluate satisfaction of operation .
Comparing the side effects of soap suds enema group, sodium chloride enema group and the NPO group.
Time frame: 1 day before surgery and 3 day after surgery
Patients self answers Questionnaire about symptoms by visual analog scale score 0 to 10 that depend on severity of symptoms 0 is no symptoms and 10 most severe symptoms. Symptoms including headache, nausea, vomiting, thirsty, fatique, anxious, discomfort, abdominal pain , bloating, insomnia, ashamed, fecal incontinence.
