Endoscopic Size Assessment of Advanced Adenomatous Polyps

January 17, 2025 updated by: Rush University Medical Center

Endoscopic Size Assessment of Advanced Adenomatous Polyps; Inter Observer Variations

The investigators are retrospectively comparing detection rates of adenomatous polyps, advanced adenomas, and size assessment of the polyps among Rush University Medical Center endoscopists. The investigators plan to review whether the size assessment of adenomatous polyps affected the surveillance protocols and if the location of polyps detected affected the detection rates.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The study plans to compare detection rates of adenomatous as well as the sessile serrated polyps, advanced adenomas and size assessment of the polyps among the endoscopists at the study site. In addition, the study team aims to evaluate rates of advanced neoplasia on surveillance colonoscopy based on certain features on initial colonoscopy and patient characteristics, including specific high-risk histologic features and concurrent medication usage such as aspirin. In addition, patients with at least one adenoma on surveillance colonoscopy will be identified and regarded as cases. Cases will be compared against normal surveillance colonoscopy. The Controls will be selected on a 1:1 ratio. Aspirin use will be compared between groups.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adenomatous Polyp Detection Rate
Time Frame: one year
Assessing for advanced adenomas (including location).
one year
Endoscopic Size Assessment Versus Pathological Size Assessment
Time Frame: one year
Size of polyps at time of endoscopic procedure will be compared to the size of the same polyp by pathological assessment.
one year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Retroflexion as an indication of adenoma detection rate in colorectal cancer screening
Time Frame: one year
Retroflexion is a common but not mandatory practice in colonoscopy which as not been systematically studied in terms of polyp detection. Charts will be reviewed to determine whether retroflexion was performed.
one year
