Intraluminal Peppermint Oil and Adenoma Detection Rate in Screening Colonoscopy

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Colonic Polyp
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05559814
Lead Sponsor
Mahidol University
Brief Summary

This is a prospective randomized placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of peppermint oil spraying into the colonic lumen through the scope channel during screening colonoscopy. The primary outcome is to compare the colonic peristalsis between peppermint oil and placebo. The secondary outcomes compare the procedural time, polyp detection rate, adenoma detection rate, and adverse events.
