Examining Techniques on Adenoma Miss Rate in Proximal Colon (SINOCOLO2017)

November 22, 2017 updated by: En-Da Yu, Changhai Hospital

Efficacy of Segmental Re-examination and Retroflexion of Proximal Colon for Adenoma Miss Rate During Colonoscopy

The primary aim of this study is

- to explore the usefulness of re-examination and retroflexion on adenoma miss rate (AMR) in the proximal colon.

Other aims include to explore the data below when re-examination or retroflexion is used.

  • Adenoma detection rate, ADR
  • Polyp miss rate, PMR
  • Polyp detection rate, PDR
  • Withdrawal time, WT

Study Overview

Detailed Description

AMR = number of adenomas missing during the first examination/ total number of adenomas in both examinations = number of adenomas detected only in the second examination/(number of adenomas detected during the first examination + number of adenomas detected only in the second examination)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Re-examination Group
Routine intubation is performed. After cecal intubation, the cecum and ascending colon is examined with colonoscope tip in forward direction for the first time. Re-intubation is performed after the first examination of the cecum and ascending colon, and then this region of the large bowel is re-examined in the same fashion. After that, the rest of the colon is examined in routine method.
Re-examination in colonoscopy means examining the cecum and ascending colon twice in the routine fashion.
EXPERIMENTAL: Retroflexion Group
Routine intubation is performed. After cecal intubation, the cecum and ascending colon is examined with colonoscope tip in forward direction for the first time. Re-intubation is performed after the first examination of the cecum and ascending colon, and then this region of the large bowel is re-examined with the colonoscope tip in reverse direction (retroflexion fashion). After that, the rest of the colon is examined in routine method.
Retroflexion technique in colonoscopy means turning the colonoscope tip 180 degree in order to look backward in the colon and rectum.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adenoma miss rate in the proximal colon (AMR)
Time Frame: At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour
AMR refers to the rate of adenoma missing, calculated as the proportion of adenomas which are missing in the first examination. AMR in the proximal colon is calculated with only the proximal colon concerned.
At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adenoma Detection Rate in the proximal colon (ADR)
Time Frame: At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour
ADR refers to the rate of adenoma detection, calculated as the proportion of subjects with at least one adenoma. ADR in the proximal colon is calculated with only the proximal colon concerned.
At the end of the procedure, up to 1 hour
