Inadequate Bowel Prep May Invalidate Colonoscopy
Date:3/29/2012

s suggest that if a doctor is having difficulty viewing a patient's colon because of inadequate bowel prep, the colonoscopy should be stopped and rescheduled.

"We often can detect preparation problems during the first few minutes of the procedure," Chokshi said. "And based on this study, we would say that rather than subjecting a patient to the potential risks of a full colonoscopy when we may not be able to detect polyps, or other precancerous growths called adenomas, it may be better to bring that patient back as soon as possible for a repeat procedure with better bowel preparation."

The U.S. National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases has more about colonoscopy.
