Abstract:Objective To explore status and influencing factors of surveillance in colorectal post-polypectomy patients. Methods Patients who underwent colorectal polypectomy in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University between April 1, 2019 and June 30, 2019 were retrospectively studied. The surveillance information was obtained through electronic health record and telephone call. Status and influencing factors of surveillance in colorectal post-polypectomy patients were evaluated. Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis to determine independent risk factors influencing surveillance. Results A total of 268 colorectal post-polypectomy patients and their surveillance information were reviewed, of whom 153 (57.09%) patients received surveillance colonoscopy, and 115 (42.91%) patients did not. Univariate analysis showed that the source of patients (outpatients VS inpatients, χ2=5.68, P=0.017), department (others VS department of gastroenterology, χ2=6.64, P=0.010), and the number of polyps (1/(2~4)/≥5,χ2=7.32, P=0.026) influenced the outcome of surveillance. Logistic regression model indicated that department of gastroenterology (P=0.039, OR=2.12, 95%CI:1.04-4.34), risk level 3 (P=0.040,OR=1.92, 95%CI:1.03-3.58) and the number of polyps ≥5 (P=0.016, OR=2.89, 95%CI:1.22-6.83) were independent risk factors influencing surveillance. Conclusion Patients visit the department of gastroenterology or had a risk level 3 or ≥5 polyps are more likely to opt for surveillance following the procedure.
