Abstrakt: | Introduction: Delays in inpatient colonoscopy are commonly caused by inadequate bowel preparation and result in increased hospital length of stay (LOS) and healthcare costs. Low-volume bowel preparation (LV-BP; sodium sulfate, potassium sulfate, and magnesium sulfate ) has been shown to improve outpatient bowel preparation quality compared with standard high-volume bowel preparations (HV-BP; polyethylene glycol ). However, its efficacy in hospitalized patients has not been well-studied. We assessed the impact of LV-BP on time to colonoscopy, hospital LOS, and bowel preparation quality among inpatients. Methods: We performed a propensity score-matched analysis of adult inpatients undergoing colonoscopy who received either LV-BP or HV-BP before colonoscopy at a quaternary academic medical center. Multivariate regression models with feature selection were developed to assess the association between LV-BP and study outcomes. Results: Among 1,807 inpatients included in this study, 293 and 1,514 patients received LV-BP and HV-BP, respectively. Among the propensity score-matched population, LV-BP was associated with a shorter time to colonoscopy (β: -0.43 [95% confidence interval: -0.56 to -0.30]) while having similar odds of adequate preparation (odds ratio: 1.02 [95% confidence interval: 0.71-1.46]; P = 0.92). LV-BP was also significantly associated with decreased hospital LOS among older patients (age ≥ 75 years), patients with chronic kidney disease, and patients who were hospitalized with gastrointestinal bleeding. Discussion: LV-BP is associated with decreased time to colonoscopy in hospitalized patients. Older inpatients, inpatients with chronic kidney disease, and inpatients with gastrointestinal bleeding may particularly benefit from LV-BP. Prospective studies are needed to further establish the role of LV-BP for inpatient colonoscopies. (Copyright © 2022 The Author(s).
