Summary

Colonoscopy is considered the primary screening test for colorectal cancer screening worldwide. For technical difficulties previously experienced during colonoscopy, especially loop of the colonoscopy device in the colon, many solution methods have been developed and applied (manual pressure and position change, etc.). Although these methods are partially successful, there is no consensus on the optimum solution method. Few studies in the literature have investigated the use of corset during colonoscopy and conflicting results have been reported. In this study, elastic abdominal corset or false corset will be used during colonoscopy. Indeed, the investigators aim to determine whether this method is effective and safe with their own results and contribute to the literature. The primary outcome of this study will be the cecal intubation time. Secondary outcomes include manual pressure and position change during the procedure, length of cecal intubation (length of colonoscope required to reach the cecum from the anus), colonoscopy completion rate, additional anesthesia and / or analgesic requirement, patient pain and comfort level and colonoscopic findings.Efficacy will be assessed on the basis of pairwise comparisons between groups with respect to primary and secondary outcomes.
