- {"endpoint_text":"- The presence of foam and bubbles using the CEBuS (Colon Endoscopic Bubble Scale), in which each colonic segment (right colon, transverse colon, left colon) is scored from 0 to 2 (0=no or minimal number of bubbles; 1=moderate amount of bubbles affecting 5-50% of the circumference, affecting the vision of the mucosa and requiring additional time to wash; 2=abundant bubbles occupying >50% of the circumference, obscuring the mucosa and require ring additional time to washing).","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Presence of foam and bubbles assessed by CEBuS; each colonic segment scored 0–2 as defined."}
