Objective To evaluate the effect of visual and audiovisual distraction on anxiety and acceptance levels among patients undergoing colonoscopy. Methods A total of 180 consecutive patients undergoing colonoscopy were randomly divided into three groups: group A received visual distraction; group B received audiovisual distraction; and group C received routine care alone. Levels of anxiety and willingness to accept the same intervention if the procedure needed to be repeated were compared among the three groups. Results The reduction of anxiety score after colonoscopy in group A and group B was greater than that in group C, but the difference was not statistically significant. The rate of willingness to accept the same intervention if the procedure needed to be repeated was significantly different among the three groups: the rates for group A and group B were higher than for group C (Plt;0.05). Conclusions Both visual distraction and audiovisual distraction can significantly improve patients’ acceptance of colonoscopy. Visual distraction and audiovisual distraction have no significant effect on reducing anxiety.
Objective To evaluate the difference of oral sodium phosphate (NaP) and polyethylene glycol-electrolyte lavage solution (PEG-ELS) in the aspects of cleansing efficacy, tolerance, and safety in clinical practice, so as to provide evidence for clinical practice. Methods A systematic review of all the relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was performed according the handbook of the Cochrane Collaboration. RCTs were identified from The Cochrane Library(Issue1,2004) MEDLINE(1980-2004), EMBASE(1984-2004),and CBM(1978-2004).Handsearching was also performed .RCTs comparing the two methods were selected .Tow reviewers independently assessed the quality of included trials and extracted data independently .Results Eighteen trials involving 3668 patients were included .Sub-group analysis was performed. Nap tablet had higher rate of adequate cleansing quality (RR1.08,95%CI1.02 to 1.05,p=0.01).Two-day ,divided-dose oral Nap was superior in the rate of adequate cleansing quality (RR1.27,95%CI1.06 to 1.52,p=0.009). .The. rate of adequate cleansing quality in right colon of Nap was lower than PEG-ELS(RR0.79,95%CI 0.64 to 0.98,p=0.03).The rate of abdominal cramps (RR 0.84,95%CI 0.72 to 0.99),the rate of abdominal fullness (RR 0.48,95%CI 0.26 to 0.89),the rate of nausea (RR 0.65,95%CI 0.56 to 0.76)and the percentage of patients who didn’t finished their prescribed regimen (RR 0.23,95%CI0.14 to 0.36)in Nap group were lower (plt;0.05).Conclusions Compared with PEG-ELS,Nap is superior in cleansing efficacy , patients’ tolerance ,safety and economy . It is possible to promote the use of Nap in clinical practice in China .
ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility and efficiency of patient-controlled analgesia and sedation (PCAS) with propofol and remifentanil for colonoscopy in elderly patients. MethodsSixty elderly patients preparing for painless colonoscopy between May and September 2015 were randomly allocated into PCAS group and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) group with 30 patients in each. In the PCAS group, the mixture of remifentanil and propofol at 0.6 mL/(kg·h) was pumped continuously after an initial bolus of 0.05 mL/kg mixture. The examination began three minutes after the infusion was finished. Patients could press the self-control button. Each bolus delivered 1 mL and the lockout time was 1 minute. In the TIVA group, patients received fentanyl at 1 μg/kg and midazolam at 0.02 mg/kg intravenously, and accepted intravenous propofol at 0.8-1.0 mg/kg two minutes later. The examination began when the patients lost consciousness. ResultsA significant decline of mean arterial blood pressure was detected within each group after anesthesia (P < 0.05). The decrease of mean blood pressure in the TIVA group was more significant than that in the PCAS group (P < 0.05). The heart rate, pulse oxygen saturation and respiratory rate decreased significantly after anesthesia in both the two groups (P < 0.05), while end-tidal CO2 increased after anesthesia without any significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The induction time, time to insert the colonoscope to ileocecus, and total examination time were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). As for the time from the end of examination to OAA/S score of 5 and to Aldrete score of 9, the PCAS group was significantly shorter than the TIVA group (P < 0.05). ConclusionPCAS with remifentanil and propofol can provide sufficient analgesia, better hemodynamic stability, lighter sedation, and faster recovery compared with TIVA.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of computer-aided detection (CADe) and conventional colonoscopy in identifying colorectal adenomas and polyps. MethodsThe PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, WanFang Data, VIP, and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the effectiveness and safety of CADe assisted colonoscopy and conventional colonoscopy in detecting colorectal tumors from 2014 to April 2023. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and evaluated the risk of bias of the included literature. Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 9 RCTs were included, with a total of 6 393 patients. Compared with conventional colonoscopy, the CADe system significantly improved the adenoma detection rate (ADR) (RR=1.22, 95%CI 1.10 to 1.35, P<0.01) and polyp detection rate (PDR) (RR=1.19, 95%CI 1.04 to 1.36, P=0.01). It also reduced the missed diagnosis rate (AMR) of adenomas (RR=0.48, 95%CI 0.34 to 0.67, P<0.01) and the missed diagnosis rate (PMR) of polyps (RR=0.39, 95%CI 0.25 to 0.59, P<0.01). The PDR of proximal polyps significantly increased, while the PDR of ≤5 mm polyps slightly increased, but the PDR of >10mm and pedunculated polyps significantly decreased. The AMR of the cecum, transverse colon, descending colon, and sigmoid colon was significantly reduced. There was no statistically significant difference in the withdrawal time between the two groups. Conclusion The CADe system can increase the detection rate of adenomas and polyps, and reduce the missed diagnosis rate. The detection rate of polyps is related to their location, size, and shape, while the missed diagnosis rate of adenomas is related to their location.
