No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Hypothesis: Novice trainees will achieve significantly higher clinical competence and patient satisfaction scores with the use of warm water infusion method when compared with traditional air insufflation

Primary outcome: adenoma detection rate

Secondary outcomes: (1) independent cecal intubation rate, (2) trainer assessment of trainee's colonoscopy skills, (3) trainee's assessment of clinical confidence, (4) procedural medication requirement, (5) patient pain level during procedure, (6) patient satisfaction at procedure completion, and (7) patient willingness to repeat procedure'

Specific Aim: To demonstrate the stated hypothesis via above outcome measures. The long term goal is to provide evidence to influence other training institutions to consider education in the warm water infusion method'
