Risk Factors of Inadequate Bowel Preparation for Screening Colonoscopy.

ABSTRACT: The success of a colonoscopy in detecting and removing pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions depends heavily on the quality of bowel preparation. Despite efforts, 20-44% of colonoscopy participants have an inadequate bowel preparation. We aimed to assess and compare risk factors for inadequate bowel preparation and for the presence of advanced colorectal neoplasms in routine screening practice. In this cross-sectional study, among 8125 participants of screening colonoscopy in Germany with a comprehensive assessment of sociodemographic factors, lifestyle and medical history, we examined factors associated with inadequate bowel preparation and with findings of advanced neoplasms using adjusted log-binomial regression models. Among the identified risk factors assessed, three factors were identified that were significantly associated with inadequate bowel preparation: age ≥ 70 years (adjusted prevalence ratios, aPR, 1.50 95%CI 1.31-1.71), smoking (aPR 1.29 95%CI 1.11-1.50) and abdominal symptoms (aPR 1.14 95%CI 1.02-1.27). The same risk factors were also associated with the prevalence of advanced neoplasms in our study (aPR 1.72, 1.62 and 1.44, respectively). The risk factors associated with inadequate bowel preparation in this study were also associated with a higher risk for advanced neoplasms. Inadequate bowel preparation for colonoscopy might lead to missed colorectal cancer (CRC) precursors and the late diagnosis of CRC. People at high risk of advanced neoplasms are in particular need of enhanced bowel preparation.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough split-dose bowel regimen is recommended in colon cancer screening and surveillance guidelines, implementation in clinical practice has seemingly lagged because of concerns of patient compliance.ObjectivesTo assess patient compliance with the split-dose bowel regimen and assess patient- and preparation process-related factors associated with compliance and bowel preparation adequacy.DesignProspective survey cohort.SettingTertiary care setting.PatientsAverage-risk patients undergoing colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening between August 2011 and January 2013.Main outcome measurementsSplit-dose bowel regimen patient-reported compliance and bowel preparation adequacy with the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale score.ResultsSurveys and Boston Bowel Preparation Scale score data were completed in 462 participants; 15.4% were noncompliant with the split-dose bowel regimen, and suboptimal bowel preparation (score <5) was reported in 16% of all procedures. White (P = .009) and married (P = .01) subjects were least likely to be noncompliant, whereas Hispanic subjects and those who reported incomes of US$75,000 or less were most likely to be noncompliant (P = .004). Participants who were noncompliant with split-dosing were less likely to follow the other laxative instructions and more likely to have their colonoscopy appointment before 10:30 am. Compliance differed by bowel preparation type (P = .003, χ(2) test), with those who used MiraLAX showing the highest compliance, followed by polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution and other bowel preparations. Noncompliance with split-dose bowel preparation (odds ratio 6.7; 95% confidence interval, 3.2-14.2) was the strongest predictor of suboptimal bowel preparation.LimitationsPatient self-report, performed at tertiary care center.ConclusionsOverall, 1 in 7 patients do not comply with a split-dose bowel regimen. Ensuring compliance with the split-dose bowel regimen will reduce the risk of a suboptimal bowel preparation.

Project description:Abstract Aims Failed bowel preparation is common during colonoscopy, yet the optimal purgative regimen to use for the next attempt is unknown. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of two regimens at supratherapeutic doses for use after failed bowel preparation. Methods A multi-centre phase III endoscopist blinded randomized controlled trial (NCT02976805) was conducted in patients who failed bowel preparation, using the US Multi-Society Task Force (USMSTF) definition of inability to exclude polyps >5 mm in size and requiring a shortened interval to next colonoscopy. Regimen A consisted of 15 mg of bisacodyl and 2 + 2 L of split dose polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution (PEG) and Regimen B consisted of 15 mg of bisacodyl and 4 + 2 L of split dose PEG. The primary outcome was adequate bowel preparation, defined as a Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) total score ≥ 6 with all segment scores ≥ 2. Secondary outcomes were adequate bowel preparation using the USMSTF definition, median BBPS, adenoma detection (ADR), advanced adenoma detection (aADR), sessile serrated polyp detection (SSPDR), and cecal intubation (CIR). Adverse events were assessed at the time of the colonoscopy and 14 days later. Results Between February 2017 and December 2019, 250 subjects were screened at four academic centres in Canada, of which 195 were randomized: 96 to Regimen A and 99 to Regimen B. The mean (SD) age was 60.6 (11.4) years, 87 (45.1%) were female, and the median (IQR) total BBPS score at previous failed colonoscopy was 3 (1,4). Regimen B was not superior to Regimen A in achieving adequate bowel preparation using the BBPS definition (87.6% vs. 91.1%, p=0.45) or the USMSTF definition (85.4% vs 91.1%, p=0.24), nor was it superior with respect to the median BBPS score (7 vs 7, p=0.50), mean ADR (31.5% vs 37.8%, p=0.37), aADR (11.2% vs 18.9%, p=0.15), SSPDR (5.6% vs 8.9%, p=0.40) or CIR (92.1% vs 96.7%, p=0.19). Regimen A had a higher adherence rate (88.2% vs. 74.7%, p=0.02) and greater willingness to undergo the bowel preparation again (91.2% vs. 66.2%, p<0.001). The only serious adverse event occurred in a patient randomized to Regimen B who was admitted to hospital for vomiting after colonoscopy. Conclusions Split dose 4L PEG with 15mg of bisacodyl is highly efficacious, well tolerated, and can be used for patients who previously failed first line bowel preparations. The additional 2L of PEG in Regimen B did not improve bowel preparation and was not as well tolerated. Funding Agencies AMOSO Opportunities Grant, Pharmascence Inc.
