What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of bowel preparation and colonoscopy in patients with chronic heart disease, chronic kidney disease, and chronic liver disease. Eligible adult patients will undergo bowel preparation using a split-dose polyethylene glycol solution before their scheduled colonoscopy. The study will classify patients based on their specific chronic conditions and monitor various outcomes, including the adequacy of bowel preparation and any post-procedural complications. Routine blood investigations will also be conducted to ensure patient safety throughout the process.
