Bowel preparation for colonoscopy - how can you make it work for you? [Supporting Resource]
Learning points
- Timing is a key factor in adequate bowel preparation. Most endoscopy units in the UK split bowel preparation for afternoon procedures, but not for morning procedures.
- Patient adherence impacts bowel preparation quality, which can be improved by enhanced educational interventions.
- In the setting of previous poor preparation, high volume PEG and adjuvant stimulant laxatives improve cleansing and the rate of adequate preparation at subsequent colonoscopy.
