About this study

Official title: Unrestricted Diet vs 1-day Low Residue Diet for Screening Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy is the technique of choice for the evaluation of the mucosa of the colon. To be able to do the procedure in optimal conditions, it needs to be clean. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a preparation as safe and tolerable as possible. This preparation generally consists in a low residue diet the days before the colonoscopy and in the intake of a laxative solution. In previous studies, it has been shown that the low residue diet does not play a relevant role as it was considered before. Recent studies demonstrated that reducing the days of low residue diet does not worsen the cleansing and improves the patient experience. The results of this study are required for determining the role of diet restrictive diet in colon cleansing.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Unrestricted diet before colonoscopyOther

    Free diet, without restrictions

  • 1-day low residue dietOther

    To follow a diet low in residues / fiber. the day before the colonoscopy.

  • Bisacodyl 5 MGDrug

    If the participant is at risk of inadequate bowel cleansing, defined by a score of Dik et al ≥ 2 it will be given Bisacodyl 5 milgrams bid for 3 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adequate bowel cleansing

    Bowel cleansing as a rating using the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale above 1 in each segment . This score ranges fron 0 to 3 in each one of the three segments. Zero is the worst outcome and 3 is the best cleansing

    Measured: During colonoscopy (At the withdrawal phase)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Diet tolerability as assessed by a likert scale

    Tolerance to the diet assigned to the participant measured with a likert scale from 0 to 5, 0 the worst ad 5 the best.

    Measured: The day of the colonoscopy just before beginning

  2. Preparation tolerability as assessed by a likert scale and Hatoum et al. survey

    Tolerance to the cleansing solution used for bowel cleansing measured with a likert scale from 0 to 5, 0 the worst ad 5 the best.

    Hatoum et al is a validated survey designed for assessing bowel preparation tolerability DOI 10.1007/s40271-015-0154-8

    Measured: The day of the colonoscopy just before beginning

  3. Rate of colonoscopies with adenoma

    An adenoma was detected, resected and confirmed by the histology report in the colonoscopy.

    Measured: With histology report, an average of 4 weeks after colonoscopy

  4. Rate of colonoscopies with polyps

    Polyp detection in the colonoscopy as reported by the endoscopist.

    Measured: During colonoscopy

  5. Cecal intubation time

    Time expended in reaching the cecum

    Measured: During colonoscopy

  6. Withdrawal time

    Time expended in the withdrawal from cecum till the anus.

    Measured: During colonoscopy

  7. Information perceived quality assessed by a likert scale

    Perceived quality of the instructions and education received for the colonoscopy preparation by the participant. Assessed using a likert scale

    Measured: The day of the colonoscopy just before beginning

  8. Entry bowel cleansing as assessed by the modified Boston Bowel Preparation Scale

    Bowel cleansing during cecum intubation phase assessed using a modified Boston Bowel Preparation Scale which is without considering any additional cleansing during the endoscopy.

    Measured: During colonoscopy (At the entry phase)

  9. Rate of colonoscopies with flat polyps

    Flat polyp detection defined by Paris criteria: no polypoid nor ulcerated (Paris 0-IIa/b/c) in the colonoscopy as reported by the endoscopist.

    Measured: During colonoscopy

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Unrestricted diet before colonoscopy, 1-day low residue diet and Bisacodyl 5 MG in people with Bowel Cleansing and Colonoscopy, run by Parc Taulí Hospital Universitari at 5 sites in Spain.

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 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
