Dynamic Position Change in Colonic Adenoma Detection

Dynamic Position Change in Colonic Adenoma Detection: a Prospective, Randomized, Multicenter Study

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 1,072 (actual)
• Sponsor: The Catholic University of Korea · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 45 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

There was an only single operator study reporting dynamic position change during colonoscopy withdrawal significantly improved polyp and adenoma detection. So we designed a prospective, randomized multicenter study to verify the effect of dynamic position change in colonic adenoma detection. We think position change improve luminal distension and has the potential to improve adenoma detection rate.

Conditions

• Position
• Colonoscopy
• Adenoma

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Position change	Patients change position (cecum to hepatic flexure, left lateral; transverse colon, supine; splenic flexure and descending colon , right lateral) during colonoscopy withdrawal.
PROCEDURE	Left lateral	In left lateral position group patients are positioned left lateral decubitus during colonoscopy withdrawal.
