What this Trial Is About

Researchers are investigating the best timing for restarting diet after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), a procedure for certain colorectal lesions. While early feeding after upper gastrointestinal ESD has shown benefits like shorter hospital stays and better patient satisfaction without increased complications, no studies have yet explored this in colorectal ESD. This study aims to compare early feeding within 24 hours versus delayed feeding after 24 hours in patients undergoing colorectal ESD, focusing on early complications, length of stay, and patient satisfaction. Participants are randomly assigned to either the early feeding group where water intake starts two hours after the procedure if no issues are found, progressing to liquid and then soft diets, or the delayed feeding group which remains fasting on the procedure day and begins a liquid diet 24 hours later followed by a soft diet. Both groups undergo standard colorectal ESD and follow-up examinations two hours post-procedure to check for abnormalities. Patient satisfaction surveys and outpatient clinic visits occur after discharge to monitor delayed complications and overall outcomes. Throughout the study, participants undergo various assessments including blood tests, ECG, and imaging before and after the procedure. Researchers collect detailed data on patient characteristics, lesion features, procedural details, complications, hospital stay length, and pathology results. The main outcome measured is the rate of early complications within 24 hours. Secondary outcomes include hospital stay duration and patient satisfaction. Statistical analysis will compare the two groups to determine if early feeding is not inferior to delayed feeding. The study will continue monitoring participants for about one year post-procedure.

Your Study Journey

Screening

Duration - 2 to 4 weeks

Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial.

1 visit (in-person)

Procedure and Initial Management

Duration - 1 day

Participants undergo colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) followed by examinations 2 hours after the procedure to check for complications.

1 visit (in-person)

Dietary Intervention

Duration - Up to 2 days

Participants are assigned to either early feeding starting 2 hours after the procedure or delayed feeding starting 24 hours after the procedure, progressing through water, liquid, and soft diets as tolerated without complications.

During hospital stay

Post-discharge Follow-up

Duration - Approximately 1 year
