Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a multimodal artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted smartphone application in improving bowel preparation outcomes among hospitalized adults undergoing colonoscopy. A total of 140 participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either an experimental group or a control group. The control group will receive conventional written and verbal nursing education, while the experimental group will receive the same standard education plus a multimodal AI-assisted application delivered through the LINE platform. The application provides structured bowel preparation education, interactive AI-based question-and-answer support, dietary image recognition, stool image analysis, and individualized feedback. Study outcomes will include bowel preparation knowledge, satisfaction with nursing education, and bowel cleansing quality assessed using the Aronchick Scale.
