Name Description Numerator Denominator
Adenoma 1 Detection Rate (ADR) Proportion of colonoscopies in which at least 1 adenoma was detected Number of colonoscopies in which ≥ 1 adenoma 1 was found Number of colonoscopies performed
Serrated and adenoma polyp detection rate (SADR) Proportion of colonoscopies in which at least 1 adenoma or Clinically Significant Serrated Polyp (CSSP) 2 was detected Number of colonoscopies in which at least 1 adenoma or CSSP was found Number of colonoscopies performed
Polyp detection rate (PDR) Proportion of colonoscopies in which at least one polyp was detected Number of colonoscopies in which at least one polyp was found Number of colonoscopies performed
Adenoma detection rate (ADR-Plus) The average number of adenomas in colonoscopies with > 1 adenoma Average number of adenomas Colonoscopies with > 1 adenoma
Serrated and adenoma polyp detection rate-plus (SADR-plus) The average number of adenomas or CSSP in colonoscopies with > 1 adenoma Number of adenomas or CSSP Colonoscopies with > 1 adenoma

CSSP, clinically significant serrated polyp

1

Adenoma defined as a polyp including tubular, tubulovillous or villous histological characteristics or CRC with no mention of underlying histology.

2

CSSP defined as: CSSP was defined as any sessile serrated adenoma/polyp, traditional serrated adenoma or hyperplastic polyp (HP) > 1 cm anywhere in the colon or an HP > 5 mm found in the proximal colon 30
