The Impact of the Colonoscopy Starting Position and Its Potential Outcomes
Based on the literature review, many studies have been inconclusive in regards to adenoma detection and procedural positioning during a colonoscopy. Scope looping can make cecal intubation challenging, changing the positioning of the patient and application of external abdominal pressure can overcom...

description | Based on the literature review, many studies have been inconclusive in regards to adenoma detection and procedural positioning during a colonoscopy. Scope looping can make cecal intubation challenging, changing the positioning of the patient and application of external abdominal pressure can overcome this difficulty. A colonoscopy in a prone position can overcome these challenges and reduce cecal intubation time. It can thus improve the safety of the patient and the staff by minimizing the movement of a sedated patient. |
