Abstract in brief

The study investigated the complication rates linked to colonoscopies performed after a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT), focusing on serious complications such as bleeding and perforation.
Data from the Taiwanese Colorectal Cancer Screening Program and National Health Insurance Research Database was analyzed, revealing that from 319,114 procedures, there were significant complications related to FIT-colonoscopies, with a higher complication rate than ordinary colonoscopies.
Key findings suggested that FIT-colonoscopies had more than double the risk of significant bleeding, particularly for patients undergoing polypectomies and those on antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications.
