Summary

This investigation will utilize both a five-year retrospective analysis and a two-year prospective investigation. Variables including age; gender; presence of anticoagulation medication; hospital length of stay; total transfused red blood cell units; presence of heart failure, chronic kidney disease, or lung disease; history of diverticular disease; whether colonoscopy was performed; if therapeutic hemostasis was performed during colonoscopy; and information regarding prior colonoscopies in the past 10 years will be collected for analysis. A small number of early bowel preparation patients are expected in the retrospective study; therefore, a prospective study occurring over the next 12 months will be conducted. Patients agreeing to participate in the study would have a four-liter dose of PEG 3350 ordered, and the medication would be delivered within the first 24 hours of hospitalization. Radiographic studies including computed tomography angiography, tagged RBC scan, and angiography will not be obtained in the first 24 hours of hospital admission and be considered only if the patient has ongoing hematochezia at the completion of their bowel preparation. After completion of the 12-month investigative period (or earlier if sufficient sample size is obtained for clinical significance), data will be analyzed for dissemination consideration.
