3/3 Moving retroflexion earlier did not improve recalled comfort. Findings support keeping it at the end and targeting insertion-phase discomfort. Congratulations to Ahmed Al Obaidi, senior author Magnus Ploug & colleagues! doi.org/10.1016/j.tige.2026.… @AmerGastroAssn

2/3 Retroflexion first vs last: • Supplemental sedation/analgesia: 20.7% vs 14.9% (P=0.01) • Completion: 91.2% vs 93.6% (P=0.14; not significant) About two-thirds recalled peak pain during insertion. Patients receiving propofol/general anesthesia were excluded.

1/3 🧵 Rectal retroflexion: beginning or end of colonoscopy? A randomized trial in @AGA_TIGE across 2 Danish centers found no significant difference in recalled pain: median 3/10 in both groups (P=0.10). 1,050 patients contributed pain scores. #Colonoscopy #GITwitter
