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.

Being tested

    The percentage of colonoscopies with successful cecal intubations

    Measured: During the colonoscopy examination

  4. Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR)

    The percentage of colonoscopies when the adenoma was found

    Measured: During the colonoscopy examination

  5. Advanced adenoma detection rate (AADR)

    The percentage of colonoscopies when the advanced adenoma (\>10mm) was found

    Measured: During the colonoscopy examination

  6. Adenoma per colonoscopy score (APC)

    The average number of adenomas detected in a single colonoscopy

    Measured: During the colonoscopy examination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Laterally spreading tumor detection rate

    The percentage of colonoscopies when the laterally spreading tumor lesion was found

    Measured: During the colonoscopy examination

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.
