Effects of graphic communication and education on cleanliness of intestinal preparation and detection rate of colonic polyposis in patients

Abstract

Objective To explore the effects of graphic communication and education on cleanliness of intestinal preparation and detection rate of colonic polyposis in patients. Methods Totally 96 patients receiving colonoscopy in He'nan Provincial People's Hospital from May 2016 to May 2018 were selected by convenient sampling, and divided into the control group (n=48) and the observation group (n=48) . Patients in the control group took Polyethylene Glycol Electrolytes Powder orally for conventional intestinal preparation, while patients in the observation group received graphic communication and health on the basis of conventional intestinal preparation. Intestinal cleanliness, duration of colonoscopy, acceptance rate of repeated intestinal preparation and detection rate of colonic polyposis were compared between the two groups, and the incidence of adverse effects was analyzed. Results The good rate of intestinal cleanliness in the observation group was 91.67%, while that in the control group was 75.00%, and the difference was statistical significant (P<0.05) ; the duration of colonoscopy in the observation group was (7.24±2.16) min, shorter than that in the control group, which was (9.01±3.54) min, and the difference was statistical significant (P<0.05) ; the acceptance rate of repeated intestinal preparation and the detection rate of colonic polyposis in the observation group were 4.17% and 29.17%, whereas those of the control group were 18.75% and 12.50%, respectively, and the difference was statistical significant (P<0.05) ; the rate of adverse effects in the observation group was 14.58%, lower than that of the control group, which was 52.08%, and its incidence rate of abdominal distention and stomachache was lower than that of the control group, and the differences were all statistical significant (P<0.05) . Conclusions The graphic communication and education can improve the intestinal cleanliness and the detection rate of colonic polyposis by colonoscopy in patients.
