The impact of poor bowel preparation on colonoscopy: a prospective single centre study of 10 571 colonoscopies

Abstract: This study supports the view that inpatients fare badly. This is partly explained by higher rates of poor preparation; however, completion rates were reduced even with adequate preparation. Failed investigation and prolonged hospital stay increase cost. Colonoscopy completion rates need to be improved with particular attention to inpatients.

“…In contrast to the ambulatory population, hospitalized patients are more often elderly and more likely to have co-existing conditions that impair their ability to ingest a large-volume laxative regimen [2,3] . Suboptimal bowel preparation may in turn lead to repeat endoscopic procedures, invasive interventions such as nasogastric tube insertion for administration of purgative agents, and additional days of hospitalization [4] hospital costs. The purpose of this study was to determine if administering a portion of the bowel purgative via esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) could improve colonoscopy preparation in hospitalized patients.…”

“…'nın Mart 2007'de yayınladıkları ve 1516 yatan hasta ile 9055 ayaktan hasta üzerinde yaptıkları araştırmada ayaktan hastalarda barsak hazırlığı yatan hastalara göre daha tatmin edici bulunmuş-tur. 8 Yatan hastalarda yetersiz barsak hazırlığı önemli bir problem olmakla birlikte, bu hasta grubunda yetersiz barsak hazırlığının nedenleri tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Ness ve ark., yatan hasta olmanın yetersiz barsak hazırlığı açısından bağımsız risk faktörlerinden biri olduğunu göstermişlerdir.…”

“…ise yatan hastaların zamanlarının çoğunu yatakta geçirmeleri, ortak kullanım nedeniyle tuvalet imkanlarının kısıtlılığı ve serbest sıvı alımının kısıtlanmış olmasına bağlı olabileceğini ileri sürmüşlerdir. 8 Yatan hastalarda yetersiz barsak hazırlığının nedenlerini araştıran Reilly ve ark. 'nın çalışmasında yatan hastalarda bir takım ilaçların ve hastalıkların barsak hazırlığının yeterliliğini belirlediğini ileri sür-müşlerdir.…”

“…Patient compliance becomes a pivotal factor as it has been shown that inadequate bowel preparation reduces the quality of colonoscopy. This in turn leads to increased procedural risks and hinders the better visualization of the colonic mucosa increasing missed polyp detection rates 2,3 There are myriad of the bowel preparation agents available in the market which can make the right choice difficult. The next section describes in detail the commonly used bowel preparation agents and measures that can enhance patient compliance and acceptability of the bowel regimen prescribed to them.…”
