Can reusable water make colonoscopy cleaner and greener?
NCT ID NCT06688955
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study checks if using specially controlled water in reusable bottles during colonoscopy stays free of bacteria from the patient's gut. Researchers will test water samples after each procedure in 40 adults. If the water remains clean, it could lead to a more eco-friendly and safe practice.
