title: [CROHN'S DISEASE PATIENTS' SATISFACTION WITH COLONOSCOPY VERSUS ENTERO MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI)].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate satisfaction and preferences in Crohn's disease patients who have undergone a colonoscopy (CL) and a MRI colonography (MRI). As well as evaluate the effectiveness of the information system to collect the data.
  
  
  METHODS
  A sectional pilot study conducted through a satisfaction survey questionnaire for patients diagnosed with Crohn's disease (CD). Study patients were selected from the Gastroenterology Department in the Principe de Asturias University Hospital, where both the colonoscopy and the entero magnetic resonance imaging tests were done from the 1st of January to the 30th of June 2012. Surveys were conducted during July and August 2012.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A total of 48 patients with Crohn's disease participated. Out of these, 24 were women and 24 were men. The mean age was 43 years (SD: 13.8). The worst score was obtained at the time of preparation for both procedures. If patients could choose they would prefer CL 23, 16 MRI and 9 were indifferent.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The patients' preference for CL could be due to the administration of sedatives prior to the procedure. A procedure such as the CL which initially may result unpleasant for the patient is tolerated much better as a result of the sedation. In both tests, the preparations prior to the procedures are perceived as unpleasant. We will think about how to improve patients' tolerance to these preparations, maybe by giving more information as patients, because we don't know often how to do it properly, which could magnify this unpleasant perception.
