Low-dose Laxative Improves Performance and Feasibility of Computed Tomography Colonography (CTC)

Gastrointestinal Complication Clinical Trial

Official title:
Low-dose Laxative Improves Performance and Feasibility of Computed Tomography Colonography (CTC). Comparison vs Laxative Free CTC.

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate a low-dose of bowel preparation for Computed Tomography Colonography (CTC) versus free laxative CTC with regard to performance, feasibility, patient tolerability and acceptance.

Clinical Trial Description

Computed Tomography Colonography (CTC) is a valid alternative to colonoscopy in the detection of cancer, polyps and other colon lesions.

High volume cathartic preparations, low volume cathartic solutions with oral tagging agent and tagging agent only are the procedures available for CTC.

High volume preparations are a considerable burden for patients. Low volume cathartic solutions are more accepted by the patients, reduce the amount of tagging agent and the waiting time to the exam. Tagging agent only preparations represent a risk if they are taken without medical supervision. ;

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment
