What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bowel Prep Efficacy - Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS)

    To assess the bowel prep efficacy in cleansing the colon for colonoscopy - Scale used is the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS), Integer Scale from 0-3, where 3 indicated the best outcome and 0 the worst. The BBPS was estimated during the procedure (Colonoscopy) by an endoscopist and a nurse and retrospectively by a second endoscopist postoperatively. Scores were averaged by for each subject by location (Right colon, Transverse colon, and Left colon) and then for each group/arm by location.

    Measured: Outcome BBPS was measured during surgery for endoscopist #1 and nurse raters and post-operatively (at any time before the end of the study) by endoscopist #2

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Renal Function Pre and Post Bowel Prep (mg/dL)

    Changes in electrolytes pre and post bowel preparation administration. Pre bowel prep measures were taken at study randomization (up to one week before surgery) and post bowel prep measures were taken prior to the procedure (less than 5 hours before start of procedure on day of procedure). Change is electrolytes are presented as pre bowel prep value minus post bowel prep value but prior to procedure (Pre-Post). Units = Milligrams/deciLiter (mg/dL)

    Measured: Pre bowel prep measures were taken at study randomization (up to one week before surgery) and post bowel prep measures were taken prior to the procedure (less than 5 hours before start of procedure on day of procedure).

  2. Renal Function Pre and Post Bowel Prep - Continued (mmol/L)

    Changes in electrolytes pre and post bowel preparation administration. Pre bowel prep measures were taken at study randomization (up to one week before surgery) and post bowel prep measures were taken prior to the procedure (less than 5 hours before start of procedure on day of procedure). Change is electrolytes are presented as pre bowel prep value minus post bowel prep value, but prior to procedure (Pre-Post). Units=Millimoles per Liter (mmol/L)

    Measured: Pre bowel prep measures were taken at study randomization (up to one week before surgery) and post bowel prep measures were taken prior to the procedure (less than 5 hours before start of procedure on day of procedure).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Aug 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bowel Prep Efficacy - Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) (time frame: Outcome BBPS was measured during surgery for endoscopist #1 and nurse raters and post-operatively (at any time before the end of the study) by endoscopist #2). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01695863, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
