About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of an Endoscopic Quality Improvement Project-2 (EQUIP-2) to Improve Adenoma Detection in Screening and Surveillance Colonoscopy

Randomized prospective multi-site validation study.

Read the detailed description

GI practice sites that have recently agreed to participate in the GIQuIC program will be randomized on a site-basis, to the EQUIP intervention or control.

Baseline ADR and polyp/surveillance predication accuracy will be collected for approximately 3 months.

Sites randomized to the EQUIP intervention will undergo face-to-face training by a study investigator, followed by active monitoring and feedback.

Control sites will not receive supplemental training and will be monitored by with no feedback. After completion of the study all sites will be offered the intervention (as is standard feedback in GIQuIC ).

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in adenoma detection rates.

    The primary outcome will be the change in adenoma detection rates between baseline and the intervention. Validate the effect of a quality improvement training program on the proportion of patients among whom at least one adenoma is detected

    Measured: 6 months

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?
