What this Trial Is About
The goal of this prospective randomized non-inferiority trial is to compare two different resumption time of Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) after colonoscopic polypectomy. We hypothesize that early resumption of DOACs after colonoscopy and polypectomy is associated with comparable post-polypectomy bleeding rate to those with delayed resumption. This study aims to compare the post-polypectomy bleeding risk of two different timing of resuming DOACs (Day 0 vs Day 2):
