The Effect of Taking Break During Colonoscopy Session on Adenoma Detection, a Prospective, Randomized Control Study

NCT01989650 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 1379

Last updated 2015-02-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Recent research has suggested that endoscopist fatigue may significantly affect the polyp detection rate. There have been no studies on interventions that may reduce endoscopist fatigue and therefore improve colonoscopy performance.

We want to determine whether a break in the middle of colonoscopy session would maintain a more stable adenoma detection rate

Conditions

Break
