Summary

To describe the feasibility and effectiveness of three dietary regimens in precolonoscopy bowel preparation in children

Detailed description

The accuracy of endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of safety depends largely on the intestinal cleaning quality. Qualified bowel preparation is a prerequisite for clear vision during colonoscopy. Presently, the common diet for children before colonoscopy in China is a liquid or low residual diet. The liquid and low residual diet often have poor taste and satiety, often resulting in poor compliance of children, especially young children, who are often unwilling to eat a liquid diet, resulting in insufficient caloric supply and unstable blood glucose during bowel preparation. Enteral formula as a kind of high-energy and low-fiber diet has been applied in clinical practice. Currently, there is no comparison between liquid diet, low-residue diet, and enteral formulas in children's bowel preparation in China. Dietary restriction is an indispensable part to ensure the success of the bowel preparation program. There is an urgent need to conduct research on the application of various dietary programs in children's bowel preparation before colonoscopy in China. In order to provide high-quality evidence for the bowel preparation diet program for children.
