简要总结
Water exchange (WE) method has been shown to reduce medication requirement and pain experience during the colonoscopy. Cap-assisted colonoscopy aided by air may also reduced the insertion pain. Therefore, the immediate aim of this study is to assess the generalizability of the impact of WE plus cap (WECAC), as a potentially less painful insertion technique than WE. The control group will use water infusion in lieu of air insufflation during insertion of the colonoscope. The study group will added a cap onto the end of colonoscope during the WE method procedure. This study will also demonstrate if the WECAC method have a shorter insertion time and higher proximal colon adenoma detection rate (ADR) than WE alone in Veterans.

盲法说明
-
- The patients will not be informed of the technique, and what the cap at the tip looks like; 2) The colonoscope will be set up in the absence of the patient; 3) Before the start, a small towel will cover the eye of the patients, and care will be taken not to uncover the eyes when the patient is moved.
- There will be a preliminary statistical analysis of the coded data, followed by a complete review by the assessor, who will conduct the final analysis.

结局指标
主要结局
Real-time maximum insertion pain(RTMIP) score
时间窗: 2 hours
Pain during insertion reported to the unblinded assisting nursing, visual analogue scale (VAS): 0=no pain, 10=most severe pain. The highest pain score will be tabulated for analysis.Timing of data collection will be at the discretion of the nurse to minimize bias by colonoscopist behavior
次要结局
- Insertion time(2 hours)
- Proximal colon ADR(2 hours)
- Proportion with no insertion pain(2 hours)
