Factors affecting perception and acceptance of colonoscopy in patients with inflammatory bowel disease
Bowel cleansing and abdominal pain were the most uncomfortable aspects associated with colonoscopy, especially when performed without sedation, among Asian patients with IBD. Younger patients and those with early diagnoses preferred longer examination intervals. Our findings can promote colonoscopy adherence and facilitate early detection of major complications in patients at high risk and those with long-term IBD.
