A total of 45 patients were included. HAPCs post Bisacodyl had a longer duration of action (median of 40 vs 21.5 min, p < 0.0001), longer propagation (median of 70 vs 60 cm, p = 0.02), and more HAPCs (median of 10 vs 5, p < 0.0001) compared Glycerin. No differences were found in the HAPC amplitude and onset of action between both medications.
