| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Evaluate the overall effectiveness of intestinal washing with 1 L Peg + Asc compared to 4 L Peg. The effectiveness of cleaning will be assessed according to the Boston scale (BBPS) by the blind endoscopist with respect to the type of preparation used. Cleanliness will be judged in case of score =6 and =2 in the individual segments;Secondary Objective: In the two study areas the following will be compared: • ADR, • PDR, Cecal intubation rate, • adequate cleansing in the right colon, • complementary (taking at least 75% of each dose) • frequency and intensity of adverse events • willingness to repeat the same preparation (only in patients who already are prepared in the last 24 months) • sleep quality • distress • need to interrupt the journey to the center • fecal incontinence;Primary end point(s): Percentage of patients with adequate cleaning (BBPS=6, single segment =2) in the 1L Peg + Asc treatment arm is no lower (lower confidence interval = -10%) than in the arm with 4L Peg treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3 months | — |
