Adenoma Detection
Rates & Withdrawal Times
22.1% in females.
By 2015, those
numbers climbed
to 53% in males
and 37.2% in
females. Compare
those with the
national averages
of 30% in males
and 20% in
females.
Although we
have excellent
ADR compared to
the too-low nation-
al standards, the
weaker ADRs in
our group are
strongly associated
with poor adher-
ence to the "6-
minute withdrawal
rule."
