The aim of this study is to determine the difference in efficacy between a split dose of PEG and the previous day regimen in cleaning the colon, using Boston bowel preparation scale. In addition, also to evaluate patient satisfaction regarding the modality of preparation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study included 200 hospitalized patients undergoing colonoscopy at Beirut hospitals between 2021 and 2023. One\u00a0of the two regimens will be prescribed randomly to the patients before colonoscopy: 98 (49%) in Group A (patients treated with PEG preparation as a split dose for 2 days), and 102 (51%) in Group B (patients taking PEG preparation as a whole dose). Data was analyzed using SPSS version 25.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients were distributed between 105 (52.5%) males and 95 (47.5%) females. The top two indications for colonoscopy were bleeding (34%), change in bowel habits (constipation\/diarrhea) (32%). Patients experienced adverse events noting cramps (48.5%), stomach ache (32%), headache (31%), vomiting (53%), nausea (53%), sleep disturbance (27%), bloating (26.5%), and malaise (26%). A statistically significant difference (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.040) was detected in sleep disturbance: 20.4% of patients in group A and 33.3% of patients in group B. The average satisfaction score was 3.02\u2009\u00b1\u20091.03 over 4 (Group A) and 3.04\u2009\u00b1\u20090.99 over 4 (Group B) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.896). The average BBPS was 8.07\u2009\u00b1\u20091.14 (Group A) and 8.28\u2009\u00b1\u20091.0 (Group B) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.162).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The two administrations were almost similar in term of satisfaction and BBPS. As multiple factors like age, sexe, comorbidities may contribute in altering how much a given drug is safe and efficace, more research is needed to choose the best 3regimen for each patient.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.2047","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,23]],"date-time":"2024-04-23T04:39:52Z","timestamp":1713847192000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Split doses versus whole dose bowel preparation using polyethylene glycol for colonoscopy: A multicentric prospective Lebanese randomized trial between 2021 and 2023"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Blaybel","family":"Sara","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medical Sciences Lebanese University Hadat Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hammoud","family":"Ghinwa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medical Sciences Lebanese University Hadat Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mourda","family":"Layla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medical Sciences Lebanese University Hadat Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hallal","family":"Mahmoud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Al Zahraa Hospital University Medical Center (Zhumc) Beirut Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Khalil","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Al Zahraa Hospital University Medical Center (Zhumc) Beirut Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6854-2832","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mckey","family":"Remy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology Lebanese University Beirut Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v25.i2.190"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2008.05.057"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11894-020-00764-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2036.2001.00966.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v20.i39.14488"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2011.02.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mge.2003.318"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2019\/7476023"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2008.01.044"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4253\/wjge.v6.i12.606"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v20.i45.16984"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jgh.13056"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics12030747"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.soc.2013.09.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v20.i11.2746"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MOG.0000000000000026"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v24.i26.2833"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2008.05.057"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.dld.2008.06.005"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0164442"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5152\/tjg.2017.17196"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ajg.2016.234"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gtc.2013.05.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-145-12-200612190-00004"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MOG.0000000000000494"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_27_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrgastro.2009.42"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_28_1","article-title":"Colonoscopy quality assurance in Ontario: systematic review and clinical practice guideline.
