OSS Trial Summary
This trial looks at using a drink to help people prepare for colonoscopies better, to see if it works and is tolerated.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-80 who have had issues with colon cleansing before a colonoscopy, which made it hard to see inside their bowels properly. They must understand English and be able to consent. It's not for those who've had part of their colon removed, severe kidney problems, recent heart attacks, inflammatory bowel disease, blockages in the bowel or fluid in the abdomen.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is looking at how well an Oral Sulfate Solution (OSS) works for people who didn't get clean enough bowels from previous prep methods before a colonoscopy. The goal is to see if OSS can make it easier for doctors to check the colon thoroughly.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of taking oral sodium sulfate may include stomach discomfort, nausea, vomiting, bloating and cramping. Some individuals might also experience changes in electrolytes which can affect organ function.
