FFI and PR Could Improve Bowel Cleansing.

Face-to-face Instructions and Personalized Bowel Cleansing Regimens for Inpatients Could Improve Bowel Preparation Quality.

background:The use of enhanced instruction can improve the efficiency of education for bowel preparation regimens. Researchers hypothesized that face-to-face instruction and personalized intervention for inpatient could improve successful bowel preparation rate and patient's compliance with regimens.

Methods:This was an endoscopist-blind,randomized controlled trial. 320inpatients were randomized 1:1 in one of the two study groups. The intervention group received face-to-face instruction and personalized intervention for bowel preparation protocol, while control group received the standard bowel preparation protocol. Patients'demographics, bowel preparation quality, colonoscopy completion and attendance were recorded. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of bowel preparation failure.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Inpatients undergoing colonoscopy.
• patients older than 18 years.

Exclusion Criteria:

• prior surgery of colorectal resection;
• suspected colonic stricture or perforation;
• incomplete or complete bowel obstruction;
• use of prokinetic agents or purgatives within 7 days;
• Patients with severe gastrointestinal diseases, such as intestinal obstruction or perforation, active ulcerative colitis, toxic colitis and toxic megacolon;;
• pregnancy or lactation;
• Inability to prepare bowel;
• unable to give informed consent.
