Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Low volume prep (Prepopik)
Low volume prep for colonoscopy (Prepopik)
Hospitalized patients will be randomized to receive either large volume bowel preparation (Golytely), moderate volume bowel prep (Moviprep) or low volume bowel preparation (Prepopik) in a split dose manner for bowel cleansing prior to colonoscopy.
Other Names:
  • Prepopik
Active Comparator: Moderate volume prep (Moviprep)
Moderate volume prep for colonoscopy (Moviprep)
Hospitalized patients will be randomized to receive either large volume bowel preparation (Golytely), moderate volume bowel prep (Moviprep) or low volume bowel preparation (Prepopik) in a split dose manner for bowel cleansing prior to colonoscopy.
Other Names:
  • Moviprep
Active Comparator: High volume prep (Golytely)
High volume prep for colonoscopy (Golytely)
Hospitalized patients will be randomized to receive either large volume bowel preparation (Golytely), moderate volume bowel prep (Moviprep) or low volume bowel preparation (Prepopik) in a split dose manner for bowel cleansing prior to colonoscopy.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bowel Cleansing
Time Frame: 24 hours
Measured using the total Boston Bowel Prep Score (BBPS) obtained by adding scores from each segment for a range of minimum 0 = very poor and maximum 9 = excellent.
24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cancellation or Delay of Procedure Due to Poor Bowel Preparation
Time Frame: 24 hours
To assess the rate of delayed and or cancellation of procedure due to inadequate bowel preparation
24 hours

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patient Tolerance
Time Frame: 24 hours
Percentage of participants self-reporting finishing the bowel preparation
24 hours
Cecal Intubation
Time Frame: 24 hours
Assess the success of cecal intubation rate between three bowel preparations.
24 hours
