Bowel Preparation Quality Following Video-Based Intervention and Educational Booklet Versus Standard of Care in an Outpatient Setting (PrepVibe)

Bowel Preparation Quality Following Video-Based Intervention and Educational Booklet Versus Standard of Care in an Outpatient Setting: A Single-Center, Endoscopist-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial

High cancellation rates and suboptimal bowel preparation increase patient discomfort, drive economic waste, and compromise clinical outcomes. Despite guideline emphasis on adequate preparation quality, there is no standard on how or when instructions should be delivered. This study compares three common patient education modalities-usual care verbal counseling, written tri-lingual pamphlet, and visual media via smartphone QR code-to determine which yields the best bowel preparation quality as assessed by the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) in an outpatient endoscopy setting.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE:

Non-pharmacological factors, especially the modality of patient education, may influence bowel preparation quality, yet are underexplored and likely context-dependent based on local staffing, patient characteristics, and practice norms.

STUDY DESIGN:

Prospective, single-endoscopist-blinded, three-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) with intention-to-treat (ITT) primary analysis. Allocation 1:1:1 using computer-generated random numbers. Endoscopist and endoscopy nurses are blinded to group assignment; participants cannot be blinded due to the nature of the intervention.

SETTING:

Hospital Sibu Endoscopy Unit, Sarawak, Malaysia. Colonoscopies performed by qualified surgeons or registrars under supervision; all endoscopists undergo refresher training on Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) scoring for consistency.

STUDY ARMS (INTERVENTIONS):

Arm A (Control): Usual care. Physician/nurse-delivered verbal instructions plus standard pharmacy instructions for bowel preparation solution (split-dose PEG 3L).

Arm B (Written): Tri-lingual (Malay/English/Chinese), plain-language educational leaflet reviewed by health literacy expert, plus brief verbal explanation. Arm C (Visual): Short, structured instructional videos accessible via smartphone QR code, reviewed by health literacy expert, plus brief verbal explanation.

SAMPLE SIZE AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS:

N=324 (108 per arm). Primary analysis: Intent-to-treat chi-square test comparing adequate vs inadequate BBPS across three arms. Pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni adjustment. Multivariable logistic regression adjusts for prespecified covariates (age, sex, BMI, diabetes, education, language, constipation, study arm).

PRIMARY OUTCOME:

Adequate versus inadequate bowel preparation on Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS). Adequate = total ≥6 with all segments ≥2.

SECONDARY OUTCOMES:

Polyp detection rate; cecal intubation and withdrawal times; cancellation and repeat rates; patient tolerance; complications; patient-reported clarity and helpfulness; anxiety (VAS-A); demographic predictors.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Aktiver Komparator: Usual Care (Verbal Counseling)
Standard physician/nurse-delivered verbal instructions and standard pharmacy information sheet for bowel preparation solution (split-dose PEG 3L, Fortrans) according to hospital protocol. Timing and dietary guidance aligned with standard of care. No additional written or visual materials provided.
Standard verbal instructions delivered by physician or nurse regarding bowel preparation regimen, timing, dietary restrictions, and what to expect during procedure.
Experimental: Written Educational Pamphlet
Tri-lingual (Malay, English, Chinese) plain-language educational pamphlet detailing step-by-step bowel preparation instructions, plus brief verbal explanation. Pamphlet reviewed by health literacy expert prior to use. Same preparation solution and regimen as Control arm.
Structured written educational material in Malay, English, and Chinese languages detailing complete bowel preparation instructions, timing, dietary guidance, what to expect, and troubleshooting tips. Provided to participant with brief verbal explanation.
Experimental: Visual Media (QR Code Video)
Short, structured instructional videos accessible via smartphone QR code explaining bowel preparation procedure step-by-step, plus brief verbal explanation. Videos reviewed by health literacy expert prior to use. Same preparation solution and regimen as Control arm.
Short, professionally produced instructional videos accessible via smartphone QR code link. Videos present step-by-step bowel preparation instructions, timing, dietary guidance, common concerns, and what to expect during procedure. Participant scans QR code to access video(s) on their smartphone.

Zeitfenster
Adequate Bowel Preparation on Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS)
Zeitfenster: On day of colonoscopy procedure, assessed immediately upon colonoscope insertion before lavage (time point: 0 minutes)

Assessment performed before any bowel cleansing/lavage.
