Patients Prioritize a Low-volume Bowel Preparation in Colitis-associated Colorectal Cancer Surveillance: A Discrete Choice Experiment.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) undergo surveillance colonoscopies at fixed intervals to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Taking patients' preferences for determining surveillance strategies into account could improve adherence and patient satisfaction. This study aimed to determine patient preferences for CRC surveillance in IBD.

Methods

We conducted a web-based, multicenter, discrete choice experiment among adult IBD patients with an indication for surveillance. Individuals were repeatedly asked to choose between 3 hypothetical surveillance scenarios. The choice tasks were based on bowel preparation (0.3-4 L), CRC risk reduction (8% to 1%-6%), and interval (1-10 years). Attribute importance scores, trade-offs, and willingness to partici
