Introduction
• The main objectives of colonoscopy is early detection of CRC & their precursors adenomas.
• CRC is the second leading cause of Ca−related deaths.
• Adenomas( occur in25% males/ 15% females > 50 ys are the benign precursors of CRC& their removal results in a lower than expected incidence of CRC.
• Detection of CRC at an early stage improves the prognosis.
Colonoscopy is more difficult:Colonoscopy is more difficult:
Time
Less completion

/risky prep
30 mins vs 5 mins.
75% vs nearly 100%.
Involving use of strong cathartics.

Preparation:Need good patient-doctor cooperation.
Loops & Angulations:
Too much air insufulations.
Less patient cooperation.
Loops are the enemies of colonoscopy.
Sedation failure:
Doctor or patient factors.
Tricks: New techs: New equips:
1.Appropriate insufflations.
2.Appropriate deflation.
3.Delooping when occur.
4.Deep breathing in major bends.
5. Changing positions.
6.Withdrawal time( > 6 mins) recording.
7.Adenoma detection rate recording( 25% males/ 15% females > 50 years).
