Summary

It is hypothesized that primary care colonoscopists are able to achieve benchmarks in colonoscopy quality including cecal intubation and adenoma detection rates and serious adverse event rates.

This prospective study is the first in depth analysis of the quality of colonoscopic procedures performed by primary care physicians at a provincial level in Canada.

In addition, the APC Endo study is the first to directly examine both the quality of colonoscopy and patient satisfaction in the same study.
