Trial summary

Our previous study (Am. J. Gastroenterol. 2017 04;112(4)) showed that water exchange (WE) colonoscopy was able to increase the detection of flat adenomas as well as overall ADR. We hypothesized that WE based whole-colon acetic acid(AA) staining might be useful to improve the detection of flat lesions compared with WE… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Water Exchange Plus Acetic Acid Staining on the Detection of Flat Polyps During Screening and Surveillance Colonoscopy: a Multi-centered, Randomized Controlled Study.

Our previous study (Am. J. Gastroenterol. 2017 04;112(4)) showed that water exchange (WE) colonoscopy was able to increase the detection of flat adenomas as well as overall ADR. We hypothesized that WE based whole-colon acetic acid(AA) staining might be useful to improve the detection of flat lesions compared with WE alone.

Read the detailed description

Water exchange colonoscopy was performed as described previously (Am. J. Gastroenterol. 2017 04;112(4)). Patients were randomly allocated to WE group or WE+AA group. In WE+AA group, water containing 1% of AA was used during insertion of colonoscopy instead of water alone. A bottle of 20ml pure AA was placed abutting the water pump, which make it possible to keep patients blinded to group allocation. Endoscopist using a high-definition wide-angle Olympus or Fujinum colonoscope performed all of the colonoscopies, with a withdrawal time of at least 6 min. The observation was initially performed without the assistance of cap or the use of magnification or electronic staining (NBI, BLI, LCI or AFI et al.). Scopolamine butylbromide or glucogon was not routinely administrated.

What participants receive

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

  • acetic acid stainingOther

    The water exchange colonoscopy is used during insertion procedure, in which the water contains 1% acetic acid, and the liquid is absorbed during the withdrawal process for observation.

  • Water exchange colonoscopyOther

    The water exchange colonoscopy is used during insertion procedure, and the liquid is absorbed during the withdrawal process for observation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of flat polyps per patient

    average numbers of flat polyps, defined by Paris classification IIa/IIb/IIc, for each patient

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall ADR

    Adenoma detection rate, defined as the proportion of subjects with at least one adenoma of any size, in each group.

    Measured: 9 months

  2. Advanced ADR

    Advanced adenoma detection rate. Advanced adenoma: any with 3 or more adenomas of any size, 1 or more large adenomas 1 cm, or 1 or more adenomas with villous architecture or highgrade dysplasia.

    Measured: 9 months

  3. SSA/P detection rate

    SSA/P detection rate, defined as the proportion of subjects with at least one sessile serrated adenoma/polyp (SSA/P) of any size, in each group.

    Measured: 9 months

  4. Flat neoplasms located in proximal colon

    Low-grade adenoma, adenoma with villous components, high-grade adenoma, noninvasive carcinoma, and invasive carcinoma in proximal colon

    Measured: 9 months

  5. Adverse events

    the rate of bleeding and perforation during colonoscopy procedure and abdominal pain, diarrhea, hematochezia and change of defecation habit Within one week.

    Measured: 9 months
