- Conditions
- Intubation TimeColonoscopyCap-assisted Colonoscopy
- Registration Number
- NCT02759081
- Lead Sponsor
- Dalin Tzu Chi General Hospital
- Brief Summary
This prospective, randomize, controlled trial will compared cap-assisted water exchange with water exchange in patients undergoing sedated colonoscopy. Investigators test the hypothesis that that cap-assisted water exchange is more efficient and causes a shorter insertion time.
