What this Trial Is About
Colonoscopy is a routine procedure for evaluating gastrointestinal symptoms, detecting colorectal cancer, and removing polyps. Its effectiveness depends on patient compliance with bowel preparation instructions. However, inadequate bowel preparation occurs in 20-25% of colonoscopies, often due to non-adherence, medical conditions, or long waiting times. Poor preparation can reduce examination quality, prevent detection of precancerous lesions, and increase healthcare costs. Video-based education has been shown to be more effective than written or verbal instructions in improving bowel preparation. This study aims to evaluate the effect of video-based education on colonoscopy bowel preparation and contribute evidence to optimize patient compliance.
