NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, UNITED STATES, July 19, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- HyGIeaCare Inc. announced that the manuscript reporting on HygiPrep procedures performed with great success on 343 IBD patients referred by 65 physicians at four Hygieacare Centers had been published in "Crohn's and Colitis 360, by Oxford University Press. — Gavriel (Gabi) Meron, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, HyGIeaCare Inc.
Colonoscopies provide a crucial diagnostic and surveillance tool for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD patients undergo repeated and frequent colonoscopies. The oral purgative bowel prep is often burdensome for these patients.
The study results showed that 97% of the patients were adequately prepared for their colonoscopy. Patient satisfaction for HygiPrep was very high, as reflected in post-procedure surveys and open-ended responses as shown in the free text analyses, and there were no serious adverse events.
The study confirmed that HygiPrep is safe, effective, and preferred for IBD patients. Patients with IBD now have an alternative to traditional methods for colonoscopy preparation.
