#Suboptimalbowel preparation (prep) leads to shorter #intervalcolonoscopy time, missed lesions, and increased healthcare costs. The
aim of this study was to assess whether the patient’s experience was
associated with bowel prep quality. A single center retrospective
analysis was performed of 200 patients with documented adequate and #suboptimalbowel prep who had undergone colonoscopy and agreed to be
surveyed were included in the study. Demographic information, baseline
characteristics, bowel prep scores, colonoscopy findings, and survey
responses were analyzed. There was a significant relationship between
prep quality and the following: “how did you perceive bowel prep went?”
“were you compliant with recommended clear liquid diet?” “did you have
any nausea or vomiting while taking bowel prep?” and “was your stool
clear prior to procedure?”. The logistic regression model selection
found the best fit model contained a documented history of #chronicconstipation, prior inadequate bowel prep, patient’s perception of how
well the bowel prep went, and reported stool clarity. The odds of
suboptimal preparation are 5.5 times higher for those with a history of
chronic constipation than those without; 2.8 times higher for those with
a history of poor prep; 9.5 times higher for those who perceived prep
did not go well, 6.6 times higher for those who did not report clear
stool, and 3. 9 times higher for males. Patients who perceived their
bowel prep went well; followed a clear liquid diet; #deniednausea and
vomiting and reported clear stool had more adequate bowel preparation
quality.
