Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of High-Definition White-light Colonoscopy Versus High-Definition White-light Colonoscopy With Endocuff Vision for Endpoints of Procedural Times

This study seeks to compare colonoscopy results between a standard method and one using a
distal scope attachment (Endocuff Vision).

For this study, subjects will be randomized into one of two groups (those who receive a
standard colonoscopy and those who receive a colonoscopy with an Endocuff Vision attachment).
Results will then be compared between the two; these include insertion time (time it takes to
reach the cecum of the large intestine), inspection time (time spent examining the large
intestine), the total time per each polypectomy (removal of polyps in the colon), and the
total procedure time of the colonoscopy.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Subject referred for a screening or surveillance colonoscopy

- Subject is aged 40 years or older

- Subject has the ability to provide informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

- Prior history of colon cancer

- History of inflammatory bowel disease

- Prior surgical resection of any part of the colon

- Use of antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants that precludes the removal of polyps
during the procedure

- History of polyposis syndrome or HNPCC

- Family history of colon cancer in a first-degree relative < 60 years or two first
degree relatives with colorectal cancer

- Inability to provide informed consent
