Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy, acceptability and preparation-induced mucosal inflammation of PEG + ascorbic acid vs. PEG for colonoscopy.

Detailed description

This was a prospective randomized single-blinded clinical trial of ambulatory patients to assess the efficacy of bowel preparation and preparation-induced mucosal inflammation. Endoscopists who were blinded to the preparation taken, assessed both bowel cleansing by using the Ottawa bowel preparation assessment tool and preparation-induced mucosal inflammation. Acceptability was assessed by questionnaire.
