Computer-assisted instruction before colonoscopy is as effective as nurse counselling a clinical pilot trial

摘要

Background and study aims  Better patient education prior to colonoscopy improves adherence to instructions for bowel preparation and leads to cleaner colons. We reasoned that computer assisted instruction (CAI) using video and 3 D animations followed by nurse contact maximizes the effectiveness of nurse counselling, increases proportion of clean colons and improves patient experience.
