Conditions
Keywords
colonoscope passage, left colon water exchange, cap-assisted, without loop formation
Brief summary
A prospective, single-center, single-blind, randomized controlled study to compare the proportion of straight passage through the sigmoid colon without loop formation between conventional colonoscope passage, left colon water exchange colonoscope passage, and cap-assisted left colon water exchange colonoscope passage through the sigmoid colon
Detailed description
1. Patients are undergone screening, surveillance, or therapeutic colonoscopy at the Endoscopy department of Gastrointestinal endoscopy center of Huadong hospital affiliated to Fudan University. 2. Randomize patients into 3 interventional groups based on R script (version 4.4.1), including (1) Group 1: Conventional colonoscope passage, (2) Group 2: left colon water exchange colonoscope passage, (3) Group 3: cap-assisted left colon water exchange colonoscope passage. 3. Collecting variables which consist of primary and secodary outcomes.
Interventions
Use conventional colonoscope passage through the sigmoid colon
Use left colon water exchange colonoscope passage through the sigmoid colon
Use cap-assisted left colon water exchange colonoscope passage through sigmoid colon
