Study to Analyse the Use of a Digital Platform for the Preparation and Follow-up of Patients With Scheduled Outpatients Colonoscopy

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Outpatient Colonoscopy

In brief

The goal of this clinical trial investigation with device is to to analyze the use of the Caaring® digital platform for the preparation and follow-up of scheduled colonoscopy. Colonoscopy is a difficult procedure, and it is estimated that bowel preparation is inadequate in about 25% of patients. The main question it aims to answer is if the use of a digital platform (Caaring®) could be an effective tool for reducing the percentage of inadequate bowel preparations in patients with a scheduled colonoscopy. To this end, the application will provide precise instructions to patients. A prospective, single-center, observational study with software device: The recruitment phase is expected to last two months. Patients will be followed for one month after the colonoscopy and 14 days prior to it. Additionally, measuring patient experience and monitoring adverse effects after a colonoscopy are crucial to improving the safety of colonoscopies and the quality of healthcare, promoting higher quality colonoscopy services. For that to happen, participants must have sufficient technological skills to use a smartphone.
