Filter by:The primary objective of the prospective study is to compare the incidence, duration, and severity of oxygen desaturation in high-risk patients randomized to nasal mask with nasal positive airway pressure (PAP) or standard care (nasal cannula) receiving propofol sedation during colonoscopy in an ambulatory surgical center (ASC). Patients will be randomized in groups of ten to one of two groups using a random number table. Group A: standard care with a nasal cannula. Group B: SuperNO2VA™EtCO2. Following the procedure subjects will be asked to complete satisfaction surveys before leaving the ASC and 48 +/- hours following their procedure. Researchers will compare levels of satisfaction and levels of oxygen saturation.
Conscious sedation (CS) if often used in the field of gastroenterology to alleviate pain and discomfort with interventional procedures. Although CS is relatively safe, there is concern for the development of cardiopulmonary complications. Music has been shown in multiple studies to decrease anxiety and improve patient satisfaction following cardiac, pulmonary, and surgical procedures. This is a prospective single-blinded randomized control trial that will examine the effects of active music participation and music listening on patients undergoing colonoscopy through propofol use (monitored anesthesia) at The Brooklyn Hospital Center. The study will enroll patients who will undergo colonoscopy from November 2018 to April 2019 and randomize them to receive music or no music starting at the initial nursing evaluation in the pre-procedure area. We hypothesize that incorporating music during colonoscopy procedures will alleviate patient discomfort, reduce narcotic/sedative usage and post-operative complications.
The purpose of this study is to compare the level of cleanliness using the HyGIeaCare Prep vs the standard of care Split-dose PEG prep used prior to colonoscopy.
The purpose of this physician blinded, randomized study is to determine the utility, effectiveness, and feasibility of using colonic irrigation as a substitute for standard oral colonic purgative solutions for colonoscopy preparation. Patients will be randomized to receive either oral isosmotic solution (PEG) or colonic irrigation using the Hydro San Plus Colon therapy system, an FDA approved and isosmotic (ISO) certified device for colonic irrigation and cleansing before endoscopic procedures.
The investigators wish to compare the efficacy and patient tolerability of a preparation consisting of 2L Golytely (PEG + electrolytes) plus 15mg of bisacodyl vs the standard preparation of 4L Golytely. The investigators hypothesize that 2L Golytely with 15mg bisacodyl will show similar bowel cleansing efficacy while offering better tolerability.
Use of Clearpath to facilitate successful completion of colonoscopy procedures with sub-optimal preparation.
Observing the effects of an Olympus cap on the visibility and in adenoma detection during colonoscopy.
The aim of this study is to compare the mechanism of loop formation and acceptance of CAC and regular colonoscopy by MEI.
