Premedication Dyclonine Improves Visibility During Bowel Cleansing for Colonoscopy

Phase 4
Conditions
Adenoma Detection Rate
Bowel Preparation Scale
the Amount of Air Bubble
Interventions
Drug: 3L PEG+Dyclonine Hydrochloride Mucilage
Registration Number
NCT03352700
Lead Sponsor
Changhai Hospital
Brief Summary

In this randomized controlled study, consecutive outpatients scheduled for elective colonoscopy were randomized into two groups. Group A patients (n = 300) used only 3L PEG before colonoscopy. Patients in group B (n = 300) were additionally advised to Dyclonine Hydrochloride Mucilage plus 3L PEG, The overall quality of colonoscopy cleaning was evaluated using the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale by a single endoscopist who was blinded to the intervention. Visibility was blindly assessed for the amount of air bubbles and adenoma detection rate (ADR). Difficulty of procedure, and adverse events were also evaluated.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the amount of air bubbles2 days

The amount of intraluminal air bubbles was classified into four grades as shown below: Grade 0 = No or minimal scattered bubbles; Grade 1 = Bubbles covering at least half the luminal diameter; Grade 2 = Bubbles covering the circumference of the lumen; Grade 3 = Bubbles filling the entire lumen. Bubbles filling the entire lumen.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
adenoma detection rate2 days

The secondary end point of the study included adenoma detection rate

mean total adenomas detected beyond first2 days

It was a new metric called ADR-Plus, the mean number of incremental adenomas after the fist.
