Abstract
Colonoscopy is used to evaluate the rectum, colon and, in selected cases, the smal intestine. The procedure is performed with flexible endoscope with a micro digital camera at the end. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of sodium picosulfate and magnesium citrate and a low residue diet as a protocol of evacuation and cleaning of the colon in preparation for colonoscopy. In literature review we have found that warm enemas is the most frequently recommended technique to prepare the large bowel for proctosigmoidoscopy procedures. In our experience, warn water enemas are frequently opposed by clients, prompting us to search for an alternative method. In the ten adult dogs tested, the use of sodium picosulfate and magnesium citrate and low resideu diet was easy to administer and adequately prepared the intestine for the procedure.
