Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Adenoma Detection Rate. Timepoint: The outcome variable will be calculated after doing colonoscopy for all specimens for both study groups. Method of measurement: The number of adenomas observed in the withdrawal phase for each patient will be recorded in the patient's pre-prepared form. After doing colonoscopy of all specimens, we calculate the adenoma detection rate for each group. It is the proportion of patients in whom more than one adenoma has been observed to all patients undergoing colonoscopy and will be calculated separately for each group.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The Size of a Detected lesion. Timepoint: During Colonoscopy Procedure. Method of measurement: during the colonoscopy procedure, the diameter of the detected lesion will be measured in comparison to the biopsy forceps and will be recorded in the patient-specific form.;Patient's feeling about Abdominal Fullness after Colonoscopy. Timepoint: 10 minutes after the patient recovered. Method of measurement: 10 minutes after the patient recovered, we will ask him or her about abdominal fullness by using a prepared question which has 5 option from no abdominal fullness to painful fullness.
