Filter by:Minimal water exchange colonoscopy is theoretically more convenient and faster than water exchange colonoscopy. But few studies compared the differences between the two methods. Therefore, we attempted to evaluate the effect of minimal water exchange colonoscopy prospectively.
This was an observational study comparing consecutive group of WE and CO2 insufflation in terms of right and proximal colon AMR by tandem colonoscopy.
This is a study to compare two different, but normally, used methods of colonoscopy in patients undergoing colonoscopy without sedation. There will be two arms in this study: WE (water exchange) control, and WE (water exchange) plus cap (placed at tip of the colonoscope). The patient will prepare himself/herself for the colonoscopy as per normal instructions and he/she will be given the information for the study at that time so that he/she can make a decision to participate in the study. The control method will use water instead of air during insertion of the colonoscope. The study method will use a cap that will fit onto the end of the colonoscope plus water during insertion of the colonoscope. This study will assess if the study method is less painful than the control method.
The goal of this study is to compare two FDA approved distal colonoscope attachment devices, in order to identify which device can increase adenoma detection rate the most without increasing procedure time or risk.
