Abstract
Pain and bloating following colonoscopy are an underestimated problem, with 30 - 60 % of patients complaining of such symptoms. The use of CO? has been shown to significantly decrease pain after colonoscopy in academic hospital-based studies. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether such an effect can also be seen during private practice routine colonoscopy.
