About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Segmental Re-examination and Retroflexion of Proximal Colon for Adenoma Miss Rate During Colonoscopy

The primary aim of this study is

  • to explore the usefulness of re-examination and retroflexion on adenoma miss rate (AMR) in the proximal colon.

Other aims include to explore the data below when re-examination or retroflexion is used.

  • Adenoma detection rate, ADR
  • Polyp miss rate, PMR
  • Polyp detection rate, PDR
  • Withdrawal time, WT
Read the detailed description

AMR = number of adenomas missing during the first examination/ total number of adenomas in both examinations = number of adenomas detected only in the second examination/(number of adenomas detected during the first examination + number of adenomas detected only in the second examination)

Being tested
Retroflexion, Re-examination
Keywords
Colonoscopy, Lower Gastrointestinal Tract, Re-examination, Retroflexion

What participants receive

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

  • RetroflexionProcedure or surgery

    Retroflexion technique in colonoscopy means turning the colonoscope tip 180 degree in order to look backward in the colon and rectum.

  • Re-examinationProcedure or surgery

    Re-examination in colonoscopy means examining the cecum and ascending colon twice in the routine fashion.

Study groups in NCT03355443
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Re-examination GroupActive comparatorRoutine intubation is performed. After cecal intubation, the cecum and ascending colon is examined with colonoscope tip in forward direction for the first time. Re-intubation is performed after the first examination of the cecum and ascending colon, and then this region of the large bowel is re-examined in the same fashion. After that, the rest of the colon is examined in routine method.
Receives: Procedure: Re-examination
Retroflexion GroupExperimentalRoutine intubation is performed. After cecal intubation, the cecum and ascending colon is examined with colonoscope tip in forward direction for the first time. Re-intubation is performed after the first examination of the cecum and ascending colon, and then this region of the large bowel is re-examined with the colonoscope tip in reverse direction (retroflexion fashion). After that, the rest of the colon is examined in routine method.
Receives: Procedure: Retroflexion

What is being measured

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

  1. Adenoma miss rate in the proximal colon (AMR)

    AMR refers to the rate of adenoma missing, calculated as the proportion of adenomas which are missing in the first examination. AMR in the proximal colon is calculated with only the proximal colon concerned.

    Measured: At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adenoma Detection Rate in the proximal colon (ADR)

    ADR refers to the rate of adenoma detection, calculated as the proportion of subjects with at least one adenoma. ADR in the proximal colon is calculated with only the proximal colon concerned.

    Measured: At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Retroflexion and Re-examination in people with Colorectal Adenoma and Colorectal Polyp, run by Changhai Hospital at 3 sites 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 8 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 28 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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.

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 En-Da YU, MBBS (08618699629177, endayu@yeah.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adenoma miss rate in the proximal colon (AMR) (time frame: At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03355443, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 28 Nov 2017.
