First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether starting a colonoscopy with the patient lying on their back (supine) or on their left side (left-lateral) makes a difference. Researchers measured how long it took to complete the procedure, how much pain patients felt, and how difficult the procedure was for the doctor. A total of 198 adults participated, and all procedures were done by the same doctor to keep things consistent.
