Effectiveness of Bowel Preparation for Colonoscopy Patients Using One Day Regimen versus Split-dose Regimen
Effectiveness of Bowel Preparation for Colonoscopy Patients
Keywords:
bowel preparation, bowel cancer, one day dose, split dose regimenAbstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer. The diagnosis examination could be discovered through colonoscopy. The quality of bowel preparation notably influences the efficacy of detecting colon polyps. A retrospective study was conducted to shed light on this crucial aspect, examining data extracted from the medical records of Lom Sak Hospital and Wichian Buri Hospital from July 2020 to October 2021. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of colonoscopy bowel preparation between a one-day regimen and a split-dose regimen in 264 patients, divided into the one-day regimen group and the split-dose regimen group of 132 cases each. Bowel preparation data for endoscopy were studied using the Boston bowel preparation scale and data collecting forms. The study revealed that the average score for bowel cleanliness after the colon preparation using split-dose regimen was significantly higher than that of the one-day regimen [8.23 ± 0.92 vs 6.39 ± 1.34 (p < 0.001)]. Both methods represented no complications. In conclusion, bowel cleanliness after the colon preparation using a split-dose regimen in patients is more effective than one day regimen
