Low-volume bowel preparations for colonoscopy improve tolerability. We compared the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of a new low-volume sulfate solution with a standard 4-L polyethylene glycol electrolyte lavage solution as bowel preparation for colonoscopy. Multicenter, single-blind, randomized, noninferiority study. Five
