1185 comparing right colon adenoma and hyperplastic polyp miss rates in colonoscopy using water exchange and carbon dioxide insufflation: a randomized controlled tandem study

We reported retrospective data that compared with CO2 insufflation, water exchange (WE) colonoscopy significantly reduced rAMR (17.5% vs. 33.8%, P=0.034) (BMC Gastroenterol 2019;19:143). We performed a prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) of WE and CO2 insufflation to determine whether WE with near-complete removal of infused water during insertion could reduce rAMR and rAMR combined with right colon hyperplastic polyp miss rate (rHPMR).
