Abstract
Colonoscopy is a widely used procedure for diagnosis and treatment of colorectal disease as well as for colorectal cancer screening. . But the procedure is not free of risk. The rate of serious complications was found about 0.28% and major complications mostly occur following interventional colonoscopy. In this prospective multicenter based descriptive study, adverse events after the procedure up to 30 days were recorded by telephonic conversation with patient on day 5, day 15 and day 30. Total 247 patients, age varying from 10 years to 90 years (mean 43.42 and SD 17.25) were included in this study for various indications. Of them 60(24.29%) patients complained pain and discomfort in abdomen during procedure, 06 (2.43%) patients developed bradycardia and 02(0.81%)patients developed respiratory distress preventing completion of procedure. Six patients (2.4%) required hospitalization within 05 days , 03 for respiratory distress, 01 for bloody diarrhoea and 02 for abdominal pain. None of the patients in this series had perforation, angina or shock. At the end of 30 days after procedure 205 (83%) patient agreed to undergo further colonoscopy if indicated. No death during or after procedure within 30 days was reported in our series.
