Article Synopsis
- - This study aimed to investigate how the time between bowel cleansing completion and colonoscopy affects the quality of bowel preparation, as previous studies suggested shorter intervals might be better, but no RCT had directly tested this.
- - Participants were divided into two groups based on completion times: 2-4 hours and 4-8 hours before the colonoscopy, with success measured using the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS).
- - Results showed the 2-4 hour group had similar overall bowel cleansing success (97.6%) to the 4-8 hour group (95.2%), but significantly more participants achieved perfect cleansing in the shorter interval group (56.5% vs. 39.8%).
