About this trial

Colonoscopy which is the standard examination for the exploration of the colon and rectum is performed very frequently.

Colon preparation before the examination is an essential step and pescription of the colonic preparation is carried out by the gastroenterologist.

However, despite a standardized explanation of the colon preparation, there is heterogeneity in understanding the colonic preparation, which in some cases compromises the quality of the colonoscopy examination. This clinical study aims to investigate whether an explanation of colonic preparation by tutorial films would increase the quality of colon preparation and would reach the recommendations of the Société française d'endoscopie digestive (SFED) in 2019.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Assessment of the quality of the colonic preparation by the boston score for each groupe

To date, the evaluation of the quality of the colonic preparation recognized by the SFED is the establishment of the Boston score. For each group, calculate the percentage of patients obtaining a Boston score ≥ 7. A Boston score ≥ 7 for a high-quality preparation is the score to be obtained according to the 2019 SFED recommendations for at least 90% of patients, excluding colonoscopies performed for emergencies.

Time frame
During the colonoscopy procedure

Secondary outcomes

1

Detection rate of adenomas in each arm will be compared

Number of patients with the detection rate of adenomas in each group will be compared in order to determine if there is a difference of sensibility between the two types of colonic explanation

Time frame
During the colonoscopy procedure
2

The rate of complete colonoscopy in each group

Number of patients with complete colonoscopy in each group will be compared in order to determine if there is a difference of faisability between the two types of colonic explanation.

Time frame
During the colonoscopy procedure
3

Incidence of procedure- adverse events as assessed by complications reports

Number of patients with procedure-related adverse events will be reported to the pharmacovigilance department.

Time frame
From the colonoscopy procedure to one day after
