So the inadequate nursing intervention leads to inadequate bowel preparation, serious complications and dissatisfaction for the patient undergoing colonoscopy. Aim: to examine the effect of video assisted education on bowel clearance and satifaction among patients undergoing colonoscopy. Design: a quasi-experimental research design was utilized. Setting: Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Unit of Menoufia University Hospital. Sample: Consecutive sample of 60 patients undergoing colonoscopy were assigned randomly into two equal groups, 30 patients for each group: Study group (I): received video assisted education along with routine hospital care. Control group (II): received routine hospital care only. Instruments (1): Structured interviewing questionnaire (2): Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) (3): Modified Group Health Association of America 9(mGHAA-9 Questionnaire). Results: The findings revealed that there were highly significant differences were existed between study and control groups regarding their degree of bowel clearance (P< 0.001) in addition to improvement of patients’ satisfaction among the study group subjects than control group subjects. Conclusions: Video assisted education had a positive effect on enhancing quality of bowel clearance and improvements in patients’ satisfaction for patients undergoing colonoscopy.
