If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please contact the Surgeon’s office at 613-432-7201 at least 7 working days prior to your appointment so that someone else can be booked for the procedure. If you cancel with less than 7 working days notice, or ifyou do not show up for your scheduled appointment, there will be a fee of $100.00 for any missed appointments.  \nWhat is a Colonoscopy?  \nA colonoscopy is a procedure that allows examination of the lower part of the gastrointestinal tract called the colon (aka. large intestine, large bowel) . During the procedure a video camera at the end of a narrow flexible tube is inserted through the anus and advanced through the colon and sometimes a short distance through the small intestine (ileum) . Polyps may be removed or tissue samples may be taken (biopsy) .  \nAdditional information is available online at: [http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/a-z.aspx](http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/a-z.aspx)[ ](http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/a-z.aspx)[Please bring](Please bring:)[:](Please bring:)  \n􀂃 current medication list and your pill bottles  \n􀂃 someone to drive you home  \n􀂃 C-PAP machine if you currently use one (for sleep apnea)  \n􀂃 Pre-admission Questionnaire  \nPREPARATION  \n􀁸 The Surgeon’s office must be aware of all medications that you may be taking, as some of them can interfere with the preparation, performance and safety of the colonoscopy.  \n􀁸 The Doctor must be informed well in advance of the procedure if you have diabetes, sleep apnea, kidney disease, heart disease, if you take any blood thinners (Coumadin, Pradax, Xarelto, Eliquis)  \n􀁸 Please let the office know of any drug allergies and if there is a family history of malignant hyperthemia.  \n􀁸 If you are usually constipated take two Dulcolax tablets nightly for 3 days before you begin the bowel preparation. This will help with the preparation.  \nThe most important thing that you can do to ensure the success of your colonoscopy is to properly prepare for the test. The colon must be cleaned out to allow for clear examination of the bowel wall and detection of any abnormalities. Excellent bowel preparation results in a clean colon that allows the test to be done quickly and easily. A poor bowel preparation increases the risk of missing significant lesions, such as cancers or polyps, and may result in the test needing to be repeated.  \nIndividual responses for laxatives vary, so you may begin to have bowel movements within one hour or it may be delayed up to 4 hours.  \nDIET INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOUR COLONOSCOPY  \nStarting 4 days prior to your colonoscopy, foods to avoid:  \n􀁸 SEEDS: seeds and roughage are important components of a healthy diet. However, we required that you not take these simply because they block the colonoscope and may result in the procedure being stopped and repeated at a later date.  \n􀁸 Whole grain bread or whole grain cereals or whole grain pasta  \n􀁸 Brown or wild rice  \n􀁸 Oatmeal  \n􀁸 Raw fruits or berries of any kind  \n􀁸 Raw vegetables  \n􀁸 Nuts and seeds  \n􀁸 Food containing any nuts or seeds  \n􀁸 Popcorn  \n**If you are not sure whether a food is safe to eat, then DO NOT have it**  \n**STOP all fiber supplements 4 days prior to your colonoscopy**  \nPURCHASE THE FOLLOWING AT LEAST ONE WEEK BEFORE YOUR TEST:  \n􀁸 One 4 Liter bottle of Colyte, Peglyte or Golytely (PEG-based bowel preparations)  \n􀁸 One box of DULCOLAX tablets  \n􀁸 Clear fluids of your choice, e.g.  \no Sport Drinks – Gatorade/Powerade  \no Clear pulp-free fruit juices (apple, white grape, white cranberry, lemonade)  \no Clear soups – broth/bouillon  \no Water, Koo","cbCaiq26Q6glknYp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq26Q6glknYp","pdf",306952,"English","# Colonoscopy Instructions - PEG 4L\n## Appointment and Cancellation Rules\n## What Is a Colonoscopy\n## What to Bring\n## Preparation and Medication Guidance\n## Diet Instructions Before Your Colonoscopy\n## What to Purchase Before the Test\n## What Will Happen on the Day of the Procedure\n## Post-Procedure Safety and Sedation Restrictions\n## Tips for Drinking PegLyte","[{\"question\":\"What happens if I cancel with less than 7 working days notice or miss my appointment?\",\"answer\":\"If you cancel with less than 7 working days notice, or if you do not show up, there will be a $100.00 fee for missed appointments.\"},{\"question\":\"Which foods should be avoided starting 4 days before the colonoscopy?\",\"answer\":\"Avoid seeds and roughage, whole grain breads/cereals/pasta, brown or wild rice, oatmeal, raw fruits or berries, raw vegetables, nuts and seeds, food containing nuts or seeds, and popcorn.\"},{\"question\":\"What restrictions apply after the procedure due to sedation?\",\"answer\":\"You are legally impaired for 24 hours, must be accompanied home, and must not drive for 24 hours.\"}]","Colonoscopy Instructions - PEG 4L | PDF",1790536232]
