Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In order to analyze the effectiveness and patient tolerance of the two bowel preparation regimens, the investigators will compare prepackaged semisolid nutritional formulations and restricted diet. The aim was to demonstrate that prepackaged semisolid nutritional formulations is not inferior in overall quality of intestinal preparation to restricted diet in subjects undergoing colonoscopy.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: prepackaged group

All colonoscopy were performed in the afternoon. The day before the colonoscopy: 3 bags of pre-packaged food were used for diet preparation. All the patients drink single dose of 60g Polyethylene Glycol (PEG-4000) with 1L water at a rate of 250 ml every 15 min in the evening. On the day of the colonoscopy: a bag of pre-packaged food were used for breakfast. All the patients drink single dose of 120g Polyethylene Glycol (PEG-4000) with 2L water 4-6 h before colonoscopy at a rate of 250 ml every 15 min.

Other: prepackaged semisolid nutritional formulations
The day before the colonoscopy: 3 bags of pre-packaged food were used for diet preparation. On the day of the colonoscopy: a bag of pre-packaged food were used for breakfast.

Active Comparator: restricted diet group

All colonoscopy were performed in the afternoon. The day before the colonoscopy: restricted diet prepared by patients were used for diet preparation. All the patients drink single dose of 60g Polyethylene Glycol (PEG-4000) with 1L water at a rate of 250 ml every 15 min in the evening. On the day of the colonoscopy: restricted diet prepared by patients were used for breakfast. All the patients drink single dose of 120g Polyethylene Glycol (PEG-4000) with 2L water 4-6 h before colonoscopy at a rate of 250 ml every 15 min.

Other: restricted diet
The day before the colonoscopy: restricted diet prepared by patients were used for diet preparation. On the day of the colonoscopy: restricted diet prepared by patients were used for breakfast.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Quality of Bowel Preparation [1 Day of colonoscopy]

    The OBPS,a scoring system with scores between 0 and 14, where 0 is the best score,divides the colon into 3 segments (right, transverse and rectosigmoid colon); each is scored from 0-4 (0=excellent, If it is necessary to suction liquid stool to adequately see the colonic wall, a score of 2 (fair) is given; if it is necessary to wash and to suction, a score of 3 (poor) is given. The remaining scores fall into place around these anchors. ). A score 0-2 is added to indicate the total amount of luminal fluid.(0=The total amount of fluid in the colon is very small,1=a moderate volume of fluid overall in the colon,2=a large volume of fluid overall in the colon)
