Further study details as provided by Asan Medical Center:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • the occurrence of immediate post-polypectomy bleeding [ Time Frame: 1 day ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    At 1 day after endoscopic polypectomy, CBC will be done.

  • the occurrence of delayed post-polypectomy bleeding [ Time Frame: 2 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    At 2 weeks after endoscopic polypectomy, history of hematochezia will be taken at outpatient clinic.
