Abstract
AIMS: To investigate the effectiveness of an educational film intervention on the quality of bowel cleanliness of outpatients receiving colonoscopy examinations and also to understand the related factors affecting bowel cleanliness. METHOD: This is a quasi-experimental design. One hundred four patients in the experimental group and 114 patients in the control group are the participants in this study. An 8-minute "Preparation for Bowel Cleanliness" educational film was made based on clinical experience and references to related literature. We adopted a valid Aronchick scale evaluate bowel cleanliness. RESULTS: The patients in the experimental group had significantly better bowel cleanliness compared to the control group (80.8% vs. 48.2%, p<.001). Logistic regression showed that the experimental group, gender, and experience with colonoscopy were potentially important factors that may affect bowel cleanliness. CONCLUSIONS: The "Preparation for Bowel Cleanliness" educational film provides simple and easy-to-follow methods for the preparation of cleaning the colon and related information.
