Smart Phone App for COLOnoscopic PREParation

ABSTRACT: This is a randomized controlled trial designed to assess the efficacy of a novel smartphone application as an automated reminder tool in improving the quality of bowel preparation for patients undergoing outpatient colonoscopies. The investigators will be comparing the smartphone application to traditional instructions for bowel preparation. The quality of bowel preparation will be assessed using the Ottawa and Aronchick bowel preparation scales.

Project description:Interventions: Participants in the interventional arm of the study will receive their bowel preparation instructions delivered via scheduled SMS, web-based smartphone application, email, and videos. All enrolled participants must possess a smartphone device. The interventional arm will occur in parallel design with the control arm. Depending on whether participants have a history of constipation, bloating, or diverticular disease as assessed by the faecal occult blood test (FOBT) nurse or the gastroenterologist at the initial phone call, participants will be stratified into one of two groups depending on their indicated bowel preparation regimens. Participants will be either given Standard Bowel Preparation instructions with PLENVU [macrogol 3350, sodium ascorbate, sodium sulfate anhydrous, ascorbic acid, sodium chloride, potassium chloride; polyethylene glycol containing ascorbic acid (PEG-ASC)], or Enhanced Bowel Preparation [PLENVU plus daily Movicol (sodium chloride, potassium chloride, bicarbonate, macrogol 3350) and Senokot (sennoside)]. Additional aperients, such as Movicol and Senokot, will be encouraged in the interventional arm through dynamic multimedia instructions if indicated. Participants will be asked to take PLENVU over a two-day split dosing schedule with the first 500 mL dose of PLENVU (including additional 500 mL of clear fluid) taken in the evening before the clinical procedure (at 6 pm) and the second 500 mL dose (including additional 500 mL of clear fluid) in the early morning of the day of the clinical procedure (at 5 am for morning procedure or 8 am for afternoon procedures). Participants in the Enhanced Bowel Preparation group will also take 1 sachet of Movicol and 2 Senokot tablets daily at 0800 in the week leading up to the colonoscopy. In t Primary outcome(s): Comparison of the adenoma detection rate based on histopathology assessment of biopsy samples collected at the time of colonoscopy in patients randomised to receive dynamic multimedia bowel preparation instructions versus those that receive verbal and/or written bowel preparation instructions.[At the time of colonoscopy assessment.];Compare the patient reported measures using the validated colonoscopy-specific Newcastle ENDOPREM Questionnaire on the day after colonoscopy between patients randomised to receive dynamic multimedia bowel preparation instructions versus those that receive standard verbal and/or written bowel preparation instructions.[One day after colonoscopy assessment.] Study Design: Purpose: Diagnosis; Allocation: Randomised controlled trial; Masking: Blinded (masking used);Assignment: Parallel;Type of endpoint: Efficacy
