Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Bowel preparation adequate ratewithin 10 minute after viewing colonoscopy video.

The proportion of participants with all colon segment scores (right colon, transverse colon, left colon) were ≥ 2 according to Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) .

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Boston bowel preparation scale scoreWithin 10 minute after viewing colonoscopy video.

The BBPS scoring rules: 0, unprepared colon segment with mucosa not seen because of solid stool that cannot be cleared; 1, portion of mucosa of the colon segment seen, but other areas of the colon segment are not well seen because of staining, residual stool, and/or opaque liquid; 2, minor amount of residual staining, small fragments of stool, and/or opaque liquid, but mucosa of colon segment is seen well; 3, entire mucosa of colon segment seen well, with no residual staining, small fragments of stool, or opaque liquid. the higher the score, the better the quality of bowel preparation. 3 intestinal segments were scored separately: the right side of the colon, the transverse section of the colon, and the left side of the colon. Total BBPS score 0-9, the higher the score, the better the quality of bowel preparation.

Endoscopists satisfaction with the quality of bowel preparationImmediately after colonoscopy.

Proportion of endoscopists satisfacted with the quality of bowel preparation during colonoscopy. Endoscopists satisfaction was divided into four grades: 4, very satisfied; 3, moderately satisfied; 2, moderately dissatisfied; 1, very dissatisfied. Subjects in grades 3 and 4 were considered satisfied; subjects in grades 1 and 2 were considered dissatisfied.

Bowel preparation excellent rateWithin 10 minute after viewing colonoscopy video.

The proportion of participants with total score ≥ 8 according to Boston Bowel Preparation Scale.

Bowel preparation completion rate assessed by questionnaire surveyImmediately after questionnaire survey.

Proportion of subjects with laxative intake greater than 90% of the required amount in protocol.

Subjects satisfaction rate assessed by questionnaire surveyImmediately after questionnaire survey.

Proportion of subjects satisfacted with the whole intestinal preparation process. Subjects satisfaction was divided into four grades: 4, very satisfied; 3, moderately satisfied; 2, moderately dissatisfied; 1, very dissatisfied. Subjects in grades 3 and 4 were considered satisfied; subjects in grades 1 and 2 were considered dissatisfied.

Polyp detection rateImmediately after colonoscopy.

The polyp detection rate was calculated as the number of colonoscopies with at least one polyp detected divided by the total number of colonoscopies in the group.

Incidence of adverse events assessed by questionnaire surveyImmediately after questionnaire survey.

Proportion of subjects with adverse events occuring in intestinal preparation.

Adenoma detection rate14 days after colonosopy.

The adenoma detection rate was calculated as the number of colonoscopies with at least one adenoma detected divided by the total number of colonoscopies in the group. Adenomatous polyps must be confirmed by pathological findings.

Drug compliance in linaclotide groupImmediately after questionnaire survey.

Proportion of subjects Taking 3 linaclotide capsules according to the protocol in linaclotide group.

Aronchick ScaleWithin 10 minute after viewing colonoscopy video.

Overall bowel preparation was scored prior to irrigation or suction. The Aronchick Scale scoring rules: 1, excellent, a small amount of liquid, 95% mucous membrane is visible; 2, good, plenty of clear fluid, covering 5%-25% of mucous membrane, 90% mucous membrane is visible; 3, medium, semi-solid manure that cannot be sucked out or washed away, 90% mucous membrane is visible; 4, poor, semi-solid manure that cannot be sucked out or washed away, 90% mucous membrane is visible; 5, inadequate, repeated bowel preparation or reexamination is required. Total Aronchick score 1-5, the lower the score, the better the quality of bowel preparation.
