Abstract
The efficacy of cap-assisted and water-exchange colonoscopy, individually or in combination for adenoma detection is well documented. Moreover, prone positioning colonoscopy may also improve adenoma detection by decreasing loop formation. However, the efficacy of triple-combination colonoscopy using the above methods for adenoma detection is unclear. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of combining modified cap-assisted and water-exchange colonoscopy with prone position (CWP) and conventional colonoscopy (CC) for adenoma detection. A total of 746 patients who underwent either CWP or CC, performed by 2 board-certified gastroenterologists between December 2019 and March 2020, were investigated retrospectively. Cap-assisted colonoscopy was modified using hooking and dragging maneuver. We evaluated the polyp detection rate (PDR), adenoma detection rate (ADR), and the mean number of adenomas detected per procedure (MAP). There was no significant difference in sex, age, the indication of colonoscopy and quality of bowel preparation between the 2 groups. PDR, ADR, and proximal colon MAP were significantly higher in the CWP group than in the CC group (PDR: 84.9% vs 59.8%, P < .01; ADR: 70.1%, vs 49.2%, P < .01; proximal colon MAP: 1.24 vs 0.55, P < .01). CWP is more effective than CC for PDR, ADR, and proximal colon MAP. Although it may facilitate adenoma detection, further studies assessing the synergistic or complementary effects of combining these methods are needed.

Endocuff-assisted colonoscopy versus cap-assisted colonoscopy for adenoma detection rate: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2020; 35:2066-2073. [PMID: 32562282 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.15155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2020] [Revised: 06/08/2020] [Accepted: 06/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Add-on devices have been widely used in clinical practice. The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the adenoma detection rate between Endocuff-assisted colonoscopy (EAC) and cap-assisted colonoscopy (CAC). METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and Cochrane databases were searched. Outcomes included adenoma detection rate, cecal intubation rate, cecal intubation time, and withdrawal time. Dichotomous data were pooled to obtain the odds ratio or risk ratio. Continuous data were pooled using the mean difference. RESULTS Of the 240 articles reviewed, six randomized controlled trials were included, with a total of 1994 patients. In the meta-analysis, no statistical difference in adenoma detection rate was detected between EAC and CAC (47.0% vs 45.1%; P = 0.33). EAC significantly improved detection rate of diminutive adenomas/polyps compared with CAC (P = 0.01). Cecal intubation was achieved in 96.5% in EAC group and 97.9% in CAC group (P = 0.04). Besides, no statistical difference was found in cecal intubation time (P = 0.86), withdrawal time (P = 0.88), small adenomas/polyps (P = 0.60), or large adenomas/polyps (P = 0.95). CONCLUSION EAC and CAC have their respective merits. EAC significantly improve the detection of diminutive adenomas/polyps. CAC was better in cecal intubation rate.

Abstract
Background and study aims The English National Bowel Scope Screening Programme (BSSP) invites 55-year-olds for a one-off, unsedated flexible sigmoidoscopy (FSIG). Data from BSSP participant-reported experience studies shows 1 in 3 participants report moderate or severe discomfort. Water-assisted colonoscopy (WAS) may improve participants' comfort. The primary objective of this study is to ascertain if post-procedural participant-assessed pain is reduced in WAS compared with carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) insufflation, in invitees undergoing FSIG in BSSP. Patients and methods This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, two-arm, single-blinded trial designed to evaluate the performance of WAS versus CO 2 insufflation in BSSP. Participants will be randomized to either CO 2 or WAS and will be asked to rate pain post-procedure. Key procedure-related data will be analyzed, including adenoma detection rates (ADR) and degree of sigmoid looping. A cost-effectiveness analysis of WAS versus CO 2 and a discrete choice experiment exploring preferences of participants for attributes of sigmoidoscopy will also be performed. Discussion This is the first trial in the United Kingdom (UK) to investigate the effects of WAS in a screening setting. If the trial shows WAS either reduces pain or increases ADR, this may result in a practice change to implement WAS in screening and non-screening endoscopic practice directly impacting on 256,000 people a year who will undergo BSSP FSIG by 2020. Trial funding came from National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) supported by the NIHR Clinical Research Network. The trial is actively recruiting.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer still has a high incidence and mortality. Although colonoscopy is considered as gold standard of colorectal cancer screening, there still exists an unsatisfactory level of adenomas missed in screening and surveillance colonoscopy. Furthermore, patients bear the burden of potentially unpleasant and painful examination and preparation procedures. Method A search of the literature using PubMed was carried out, supplemented by a review of the programs of the Digestive Disease Week (DDW) and the United European Gastroenterology Week (UEGW) 2011-2013. Results Several new approaches to colonoscopy were described: water, CO2 and cap colonoscopy, and application of spasmolytics such as hyoscine butylbromide and glucagon. The use of these methods does not necessitate the purchase of new endoscopes. They are feasible and safe, facilitate achieving the aim of more comfort and less pain, and perhaps allow lower doses of sedatives to be used. However, a clear effect on procedure time is lacking. Furthermore, the published data do not consistently answer the question of whether these techniques have a positive impact on the most important goal, the better detection of carcinoma precursors. Conclusion More efforts to optimize bowel preparation have to be made to improve visualization of the mucosal surface. The most reliable criteria for the quality of screening and surveillance colonoscopy remain a minimum cecal intubation rate of >90%, a withdrawal time of at least 6 or better 9 min, and an adenoma detection rate of >20%. These results should be achieved with a complication rate lower than 1%, including polypectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM One of the major causes of pain during colonoscopy is looping of the instrument during insertion through the sigmoid colon, which causes discomfort by stretching the mesentery. There are many studies in colonoscope techniques, but they have not been assessed objectively with respect to colonoscope passage through the sigmoid colon without loop formation. The aim of the present study was to determine whether cap-fitted colonoscopy and water immersion increase the success rate of insertion through the sigmoid without loop formation. METHODS A total of 1005 patients were randomized to standard colonoscopy, cap-fitted colonoscopy or water immersion technique. All examinations were carried out under a magnetic endoscope imaging device. Main outcome was the success rate of insertion without loop formation. RESULTS Success rate of insertion without loop formation was 37.5%, 40.0%, and 53.8% in the standard, cap, and water groups, respectively (standard vs water P = 0.00014, cap vs water P = 0.00186). There were no significant differences among the groups regarding cecal intubation rate, cecal intubation time and number of polyps ≥5 mm per patient. CONCLUSIONS Water immersion increases the success rate of insertion through the sigmoid colon without loop formation. This practical technique, requiring only preparation of a cap and water, is useful without compromising cecal intubation rate, cecal intubation time, or polyp detection rate.
