About this study

Official title: Optimal Bowel Preparation Regimen for Patients With With a History of Colorectal Resection Before Colonoscopy

The study compares the efficacy of bowel cleansing between the standard preparation (2 L polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution, 2 L PEG-ELS), low-volume preparation (10 mg bisacodyl plus 2 L PEG-ELS) and high-volume preparation (4 L PEG-ELS) in patients with previous colorectal resection.

Read the detailed description

Colonoscopy is the standard approach for evaluating the colon currently. Thorough bowel cleansing is critical for adequate visualization of colonic mucosa during colonoscopy. Inadequate bowel cleansing results in adverse consequences for the examination, including lower adenoma detection rates, longer procedural time, lower cecal intubation rates, shorter intervals between examinations and an estimated 12-22% increase in overall colonoscopy cost. A history of colorectal resection represents an independent predictor for inadequate colon cleansing,hence strategies to improve bowel preparation may be a demanding goal in this subset of patients.

The study compares the efficacy of bowel cleansing between the standard preparation (2 L polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution, 2 L PEG-ELS), low-volume preparation (10 mg bisacodyl plus 2 L polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution) and high-volume preparation (4L polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution, 4L PEG-ELS) in patients with previous colorectal resection. Then the investigators can select the optimized regimen for patients with colorectal surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • standard preparation (2L PEG-ELS)Drug

    Subjects who are randomized into group A will receive standard bowel preparation (2L PEG-ELS) on the same-day of procedure.

  • low-volume preparation (10 mg bisacodyl plus 2L PEG-ELS)Drug

    Subjects who are randomized into group B will receive 10mg bisacodyl at 6 pm on the evening before the colonoscopy and 2L PEG-ELS on the same-day of procedure.

  • high-volume preparation (4L PEG-ELS)Drug

    Subjects who are randomized into group C will receive 2L PEG at 6 pm before the procedure and another 2L PEG-ELS on the same-day of procedure.(4L PEG)

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference of scores rating by Aronchick Preparation Scale among 3 groups.

    This is an established rating scale to evaluate the quality of bowel prep. The ratings will be compared among the 3 groups.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Rate of compliance with instructions among 3 groups

    Compliance was scored on a 3-grade scale based on the intake of bowel solution: 0 = optimal (intake of 100% of the solution); 1 = good (intake of ≥75% of the solution); 2 = poor (intake of <75% of the solution).

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Willingness to repeat bowel preparation among 3 groups.

    the willingness to repeat the same bowel preparation,a patient's subjective evaluation of the bowel preparation was recorded by a questionnaire

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Polyp detection rate among 3 groups.

    Polyp detection rate was defined as the proportion of patients with at least one polyp.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Withdrawal time among 3 groups.

    Withdrawal time from ileocecum, not including the time of treatment and biopsy for polyps.

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Caecal intubation rate among 3 groups.

    Caecal intubation rate is defined the proportion of patients with caecal intubation.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing standard preparation (2L PEG-ELS), low-volume preparation (10 mg bisacodyl plus 2L PEG-ELS) and high-volume preparation (4L PEG-ELS) in people with Bowel Preparation, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2016. 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 China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact li yanqing, PhD,MD (86-531-82169236 ext. 82169508, liyanqing@sdu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference of scores rating by Aronchick Preparation Scale among 3 groups. (time frame: 6 months). 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 2 Jun 2016.
