Variable-stiffness colonoscopes combine the flexibility of pediatric instruments for negotiation of the sigmoid colon with the ability to stiffen the insertion tube to prevent or control looping after straightening. Previous studies have found wide variation in the efficacy of the stiffening mechanism. Thus, two studies were conducted to assess the potential benefit of the stiffening device and its optimal use.
