Brief Title: Comparison of Two Preparations for the Study of the Colon Through Colonoscopy
Official Title: Comparative, Prospective and Randomized Study of Two Preparations for the Study of the Colon Through Colonoscopy
Study ID: NCT04497935
Brief Summary: Compare the quality of bowel preparation between two groups of patients, who will undergo two different preparations: 1. Moviprep + diet; 2. Plenvu + diet
Detailed Description: The quality of bowel preparation is essential for the success of a colonoscopy, reducing colonoscopy duration, and increasing the rate of cecal intubation and of polyp detection. There are several types of preparations available on the market and, irrespective of the choice, the split-dose regimen should be followed. A reduced volume preparation makes the process easier and more tolerable, increasing adhesion. Regarding the diet to be applied before the examination, there are no advantages to a liquid diet compared to a low fiber diet, and there is no evidence on the duration of the diet. In addition, a restrictive diet has an impact on satisfaction and also on adherence to treatment.
