Summary

Fasting is the current standard of care for colonoscopies. Recent changes to anesthesia guidelines have allowed for clear fluids to be provided up to 2 hours before procedures, including colonoscopies.

This study will compare fasting to a 12.5% carbohydrate solution 2 hours before colonoscopy on patient-reported measures of discomfort, hydration, and colon visibility.

The investigators hypothesize that the carbohydrate solution will improve patient-reported measures of discomfort, hydration, and colon visibility.

Conditions

  • Colonoscopy

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Complex Carbohydrate (PREcovery)

Each serving of the complex carbohydrate drink is a clear, colorless, 12.5% maltodextrin drink with a citrus taste, prepared by mixing 54 g of powder (50g carbohydrate) with 400mL of cold water. Participants will consume 2 servings of the complex carbohydrate drink the evening before colonoscopy (100g carbohydrate, 800mL fluid), and 1 serving 2 hours before their colonoscopy (50g carbohydrate, 400mL fluid)
