Effect of a distal attachment cuff on adenoma detection rate in screening colonoscopy: Randomized controlled trial in the Spanish population.

ABSTRACT:

Background and study aims

Endocuff Vision (EV) is a disposable device designed to improve polyp detection. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of EV on adenoma detection rate (ADR) and mean number of adenomas per patient (MAP).

Patients and methods

This multicenter randomized controlled trial compared EV-assisted colonoscopy (EAC) and standard colonoscopy (SC). Patients were referred due to a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT) in a bowel cancer screening program (BCSP), direct screening colonoscopy without prior FIT, surveillance colonoscopy, or family history of colorectal cancer.

Results

In total, 1437 patients (55.9% male; median age, 59 years) were randomized at eight Spanish university hospitals. No significant differences were found in
