Filter by:The study will compare the use of cold snare piecemeal resection (CSPR) vs cold endoscopic mucosal resection (Cold EMR). The study will include two cohorts: one cohort for conventional adenomas 10-19mm in size and one cohort for serrated lesions 10mm or larger.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the role of electroporation (the use of small electric pulses applied to tissue) in the treatment (ablation) of colorectal polyps. The main questions to answer in this pilot phase of the study are: 1. The safety of pulsed field ablation (PFA) for the removal of colorectal polyps 2. The efficacy and feasibility of PFA in the treatment of colorectal polyps using metrics such as treatment coverage, treatment time, post treatment fibrosis, post treatment recurrence and patient satisfaction
The purpose of the study is to assess whether the AI characterisation system of the CADDIE device improves the endoscopists accuracy in the optical diagnosis of diminutive colorectal polyps in the bowel during colonoscopy. Participants will either have a colonoscopy with the assistance of the CADDIE device characterisation AI system ("intervention group") or have a colonoscopy in line with routine clinical practice i.e., without the CADDIE device characterisation AI system ("control group"). The randomisation method of this trial will allocate enrolled participants to the "intervention" group and to the "control" group by a technique similar to flipping a coin.
Underwater EMR (UEMR) is an emerging technique for endoscopic resection. The purpose of this research is to observ wether the UEMR for medium-sized pedunculated polyps is safe and effective.
Colonoscopy is a valuable tool in reducing the incidence and mortality from colorectal cancer (CRC). Older back-to-back studies evaluating novel endoscopes indicated that conventional colonoscopy misses almost 20% of adenomas. In order to improve the diagnostic accuracy of colonoscopy and to improve the adenoma detection rate (ADR) (a significant marker of quality), efforts have been made to improve endoscopic techniques, the bowel preparation, to keep slower withdrawal time, and to use new technologies and devices. Since 2012, a new accessory device (Endocuff; ARC Medical Design, Leeds, UK), which is mounted on the tip of the colonoscope has been introduced to the market. The Endocuff is a device that can be mounted on the tip of an endoscope and may assist to inspect a greater surface of the colonic mucosa by pulling backwards, flattening, and stretching the colonic folds as the endoscope is gradually withdrawn. Use of this device may achieve better visualization of the bowel lumen, especially behind folds, and improve stability of the instrument on withdrawal. The aim of this study is to conduct a back-to-back endoscopy study and to evaluate the contribution of Endocuff-assisted colonoscopy to the detection of missed adenomas in a mixed population of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening/surveillance and symptomatic patients.
Current American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) guidelines recommend a split regimen of high-volume (4-liter polyethylene glycol-based preparation) or low-volume (2-liter polyethylene glycol-based solutions or sodium picosulphate plus magnesium citrate) formulations for routine bowel preparation. Some concerns have been raised about the use of oral bowel-cleansing agents in people receiving hemodialysis due to the possibility of secondary intravascular depletion. There is a risk for thrombosis of dialysis access in case of hypotension. The association of hemodialysis treatment and the use of bowel preparations may induce severe hypovolaemia. Finally, the 4-liter intake with high-volume preparations may cause fluid overload in anuric patients. The aim of our study will be to assess in a randomized trial the non-inferiority of a low-volume versus a high-volume polyethylene glycol-based bowel preparation for adequate bowel cleansing in people receiving hemodialysis (primary end-point). We will also compare the low-volume versus the high-volume preparation for other endoscopic and nephrologic relevant clinical outcomes (secondary end-points).
There have been very limited evidence about the bleeding complication during colon polypectomy for the patients taking warfarin. This study is aimed to analyse the effect of prophylactic hemo-clipping during colon polypectomy for the patients with warfarin consumption. The enrolled subjects are the patients who take warfarin for high thromboembolism risk and should take heparin bridging therapy during colon polypectomy instead of temporary stopping warfarin. The investigators will randomize into two groups; the patient enrolled into group 1 will be performed hemoclipping for all polypectomy lesion irrespective of the presence of immediate bleeding. And the patients enrolled into group 2 will be performed hemoclipping only for the lesion of immediate bleeding during colon polypectomy. The primary endpoint is to compare the rate of delayed bleeding between two groups.
