Study Summary

Miralax (PEG 3350) has been shown to be a safe and uncomplicated bowel preparation prior to colonoscopy in pediatric populations. This study seeks to confirm the efficacy of this bowel cleansing regimen in adults and to determine the benefit of adding a pretreatment medication to this bowel preparation. The tolerability of Miralax will hopefully improve patient satisfaction with colonoscopy and decrease their reluctance to be screened because of the uncomfortable taste and side effects of bowel preparation regimens.

Primary Outcome

Bowel cleansing was evaluated with the Ottawa bowel preparation scale by each endoscopist during the endoscopy. Neither the endoscopist nor the endoscopy nurse was aware of the bowel preparation used prior to the colonoscopy. The Ottawa bowel preparation scale is a validated tool and was used in this study to provide a reliable quality assessment of the bowel preparation used for colonoscopy. This validated scale rates each section of the colon, the right, the mid, and the rectosigmoid colon, on
