A Randomized Double - Blind Clinical Trial of 2,000cc vs. 4,000cc Preparation with Balanced Lavage Solution (Golytely) for Colonoscopy
Abstract
- To determine the most effective and tolerable method of preparation with Golytely for colonoscopy, 141 consecutive cases were randomly allocated to drink either 2,000cc(74 cases, Group I) or 4,000cc(67 cases, Group 2), with infusion rate of 1,000cc/h. The reaults were as follows. 1) The rates of effective colonic clearance in group 1 and group 2 was 94.6% and 94.0%, respectively. There is no significance difference between two groups. 2) There was no significant difference in the ingested volume until the first bowel movement and the time required for rectal efflunt to be clear between two groups. 3) Patient acceptance was higher in group 1 than in group 2. 4) Side effects were less noticed in group 1 than group 2, and incraased in body weight (average 0.8 kg) after ingestion of Golytely was observed only in group 2.
