study of patients 1-18 years (yr) of age scheduled for outpatient colonoscopy who received the standard one-day, weight-based 4 g/kg PEG-P bowel prep with a single stimulant laxative dose and had serum chemistry testing within 60 days prior to and at the time of colonoscopy was performed...
Concomitant use of stimulant laxatives may increase risk of ischemic colitis; not recommended; consider potential for mucosal aphthous ulceration as a result of bowel preparation, especially when evaluating colonoscopy results in patients with known or suspected inflammatory bowel disease Generalized tonic-...
Golytely should be used as first line for bowel prep for colonoscopy. Studies with larger populations are needed to confirm these results. (NCT00889655).doi:10.1111/j.1365-2036.2011.04795.xB. K. EnestvedtM. Brian FennertyA. ZamanG. M. Eisen...

Golytely had a higher rate of a BBPS score ≥ 7 (82.5% vs MiraLAX 67.8%, p=0.018). The ADR in the Golytely cohort was 26.2% (27/103), and was 16.1% (14/87) for MiraLAX (p=0.091). On multivariate analyses, bowel prep type, specifically Golytely, colonoscopy before noon and ...
Results Data from 63 patients were available for interim analysis (29 male, 34 female; mean age 56.3). 34 were randomized to Golytely, 28 to MiraLAX. There was no difference in age, gender nor timing of the colonoscopy (morning vs. afternoon) between the two bowel prep groups (Age: p...
For multivariate analyses, covariates included age, gender, endoscopist, timing of colonoscopy, bowel prep quality, and BMI. Results Of the 190 patients that were prospectively enrolled in a randomized fashion (87 MiraLAX, 103 Golytely), BMI data was available on 185 and the median BMI was ...
