Abstract
|
|
|
|
Colonoscopy is a widely accepted method for the evaluation of the colon and terminal ileum. Its diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic safety are influenced by prerequisites, including modulation of medication and bowel cleansing. Appropriate choices of sedative medication and bowel-cleansing regimen, together with diet modification, should be made based on the patient’s underlying disease, age, and medication intake. Moreover, effective methods for patient education regarding bowel preparation should be considered.
