Brief Summary: The investigators will investigate the safety and efficacy of low-volume preparation (Oral Sulfate solution) compared to 4L PEG solution in bowel preparation before colonoscopy.

One aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of low-volume preparation (Oral Sulfate solution) on bowel preparation before colonoscopy.
Detailed Description: Traditionally, polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution, which requires ingestion of a large volume of liquid, has been used and now to a low-volume preparations because of its clear advantages in tolerability. The tolerability of bowel preparations is related to their volume, taste, and side effects, with this being a particular problem in the elderly. Meanwhile, a new oral sulfate solution (OSS, SUPREP, Braintree Laboratories, Braintree, Mass) formulation as an effective low-volume bowel cleansing agent, with a split-dose regimen was recently developed in 2009.

Concerned about being able to better complete ingestion of bowel cleansing agent, OSS with lower volume and improved taste features, as long as it does not sacrifice safety, shuld be a better choice than PEG. Many studies have already looked at the efficacy and safety of OSS compared to PEG in average risk population, but there are no data available in solely at the elderly population. In this context, we hypothesized that OSS could be a good alternative to a standard 4L-PEG solution in elderly patients.

In this report, we describe a multicenter, prospective, investigator-blind, randomized, controlled trial investigating OSS with 4L PEG for efficacy and safety in the elderly.
