About this study
Official title: The Implementation of Computer-aided Detection in an Initial Endoscopy Training Improves the Quality Measures of Trainees' Future Colonoscopies
Computer-aided detection (CADe) based on artificial intelligence (AI) may improve colonoscopy quality. An increasing number of young endoscopists are trained in an AI environment. However its impact on trainees' future outcomes remains unclear. The study aimed to evaluate the quality indicators of endoscopists trained in an AI environment compared to those trained conventionally.
Read the detailed description
Computer-aided detection (CADe) based on artificial intelligence (AI) may improve colonoscopy quality. An increasing number of young endoscopists are trained in an AI environment. However its impact on trainees' future outcomes remains unclear. The study aimed to evaluate the quality indicators of endoscopists trained in an AI environment compared to those trained conventionally. A study included 6,000 adult patients who underwent a colonoscopy for various reasons. The study retrospectively evaluated the first 1,000 procedures performed by six endoscopists after completing training relying entirely on endoscopists' detection skills without AI enhancement. Three of those young endoscopists were trained with CADe, and three without additional assistance. Quality indicators were assessed in both groups. The morphology of detected polyps was evaluated to determine the influence of AI-enhanced training on laterally spreading tumors (LST) detection rate.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Quality Indicators, Health Care and Colonoscopy Diagnostic Techniques and Procedures, run by Jagiellonian University at 1 site in Poland.
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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2025. 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 Poland. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Serrated polyp detection rate (SDR) (time frame: During the colonoscopy examination). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06623331, which also lists 7 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 17 Jan 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
