An interventional study of Position change and Standard in Colonic Polyp, sponsored by University of British Columbia. Completed at 1 site in Canada. Open to participants aged 40 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2014-09-30.
Sponsored by University of British Columbia · Not applicable, Interventional, and Diagnostic
The purpose of this study is to determine whether position changes during colonoscope withdrawal affects polyp detection rate. We hypothesize that positions change during scope withdrawal will increase polyp detection rate.
385 studies on the registry are indexed under Polyps; 59 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 776 is above the median of 160 across 250 interventional studies indexed under Polyps.

Exclusion Criteria:
Subject will undergo standard colonoscopy.
Procedure: Standard
Subject will under go standard colonoscopy, but also with position changes during colonoscope withdrawal.
Procedure: Position change
Patients will be randomly assigned to two groups: Control group (those who will receive standard colonoscopy without position changes) and Position change group (those who will undergo position changes during colonoscope withdrawal during colonoscopy). Subjects in position change group will be asked to shift into three different positions during colonoscope withdrawal.
Subjects will undergo standard colonoscopy without position changes during scope withdrawal.
