Abstract
Prior studies of water-assisted colonoscopy, mostly in men, have demonstrated less insertion pain, better tolerance of minimal sedation, and a reduced need for pain medication compared with standard air insufflation (AI) colonoscopy. Effects on adenoma detection rates (ADRs) have been mixed. Aims: To evaluate and compare the effect of Water Exchange (WE) colonoscopy on procedure -and patient-related outcomes with conventional air insufflation (AI) colonoscopy in a cohort of men and women undergoing screening colonoscopy at an academic medical center.
