Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Colonoscopy is a frequently used method in colon cancer screening today. Routine bowel cleansing is performed for colonoscopy. When the guidelines are examined, there are various recommendations regarding colonoscopy preparation regimens and durations. In this study, participants using the same colon cleansing drug before colonoscopy will be compared in terms of colon cleansing of the patient group who had a clear diet in the last 24 hours before the procedure and the patient group who had a low fiber diet.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Studies have reported that inadequate bowel preparation reduces the detection of polyps that may have the potential to become cancerous. Unfortunately, however, many participants are unable to comply with bowel cleansing regimens due to strict dietary changes and large amounts of unpleasant laxative solutions that affect their quality of life before the procedure. In addition, participants with insufficient bowel cleansing should repeat similar preparation steps before the next examination. The European Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) recommends a polyethylene glycol (PEG) regimen for colonoscopy preparation and low-fiber food intake 24 hours prior to the procedure. In our country, PEG is not used routinely and frequently in terms of cost and lack of SGK payments. 'Sennoside A+B calcium', which is used for colonoscopy preparation in our country, shows its effect by increasing intestinal motility and causes the accumulation of water and electrolytes in the colon lumen. It has security and ease of application. In addition, the fact that it is paid by the Social Security Institution and the price is affordable makes it advantageous in the preparation of colonoscopy. Although there is not enough data for colonoscopy preparation in our country, each clinic determines the duration of the regimen in various ways. The aim of this study is to compare the patient group who used low fiber food for 24 hours before colonoscopy and who had a clear diet for 24 hours before colonoscopy in terms of adequate cleaning during endoscopy in participants who underwent bowel cleansing with 'Sennoside A+B calcium'.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Clear diet group (72 patients) 250 ml Sennozit A+B calcium (half dose is taken orally at 17.00 on the day before the procedure and the other half at 19.00 will be consumed. Enema 210 cc (Monobasic sodium phosphate 28.5 g. Dibasic sodium phosphate 10.5 g.) The procedure is rectal at 07.00 in the morning. will be used as Routine feeding of the patient up to the last 24 hours before the procedure. The last 24 hours will consume clear diet.

Low fiber diet group (72 patients) 250 ml Sennozit A+B calcium (half dose is taken orally at 17.00 on the day before the procedure and the other half at 19.00 will be consumed. Enema 210 cc (Monobasic sodium phosphate 28.5 g. Dibasic sodium phosphate 10.5 g.) The procedure is rectal at 07.00 in the morning. will be used as Routine feeding of the patient up to the last 24 hours before the procedure. He/she will consume low fiber food in the last 24 hours.

Investigators

Randomization will be planned 1 to 1 according to the order of application. Randomization will be planned by the endoscopy nurse in the endoscopy unit and will not be known to the endoscopist who will perform the procedure.
