Current Standard of Care for inpatient colonoscopy: The dose of PEG-ELS will be large-volume (4-Liter) administered as either single-dose if colonoscopy is scheduled BEFORE 11 a.m. (250 mL orally every 15 minutes between 6 p.m. and midnight the day prior to procedure), or split-dose if the colonoscopy is scheduled AT or AFTER 11 a.m. (First dose: 2-Liters; 250 mL orally every 15 minutes between 6-8 p.m. the day prior to procedure. Second dose: 2-Liters; 250 mL orally every 15 minutes to be completed 5 hours before the scheduled time of the procedure).

The study entails giving two doses of Lubiprostone in addition to the standard large-volume polythene glycol-electrolytes solution (PEG-ELS) according to the time of the procedure as follow: If the colonoscopy is scheduled BEFORE 11a.m. the patient will receive in addition to the PEG-ELS: Lubiprostone 24 mcg capsule orally (roughly every 12 hours) for total of 2 doses, with the last dose being at least 4 hours prior to the scheduled colonoscopy.
If the colonoscopy is scheduled AT or AFTER 11a.m. the patient will receive in addition to PEG-ELS: Lubiprostone 24 mcg capsule orally 2 hours before each dose of the PEG-ELS

The Effect of Adding Lubiprostone to Standard Large-Volume PEG-ELS on The Quality of Inpatient Colonoscopy Preparation

The Effect of Adding Lubiprostone to Standard Large-Volume PEG-ELS on The Quality of Inpatient Colonoscopy Preparation.

The Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) is a four-point scoring system (0-3) applied to each of the three broad regions of the colon: the right colon (including the cecum and ascending colon), the transverse colon (including the hepatic and splenic flexures), and the left colon (including the descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum). Scores can range from 0-9.

Adverse symptoms following colonoscopy can range from none (0) to severe (4)

assessment of BFRs and phthalates body burdens through measurement of these chemicals in maternal and paternal serum and urine, cord blood, breastmilk and neonatal meconium among several representative sub-populations

To examine associations between exposure to PBDEs and phthalates and (a) pregnancy complications, (b) anthropometrics at birth (i.e. birth weight adjusted for gestational age, ponderal index, head circumference adjusted for gestational age), and (c) cryptorchidism incidence, (d) maternal and infant thyroid function

To establish a bio repository of these media for future studies and to establish follow up methods for this cohort to later assess development and growth in the infants, toddlers and children
