View clinical trials related to ERCP.
Filter by:Studies directly comparing EDCS with AAS during ERCP are scarce, varying widely in their designs and reaching conflicting conclusions regarding safety and effectiveness. The investigators will assess, via a multi-center prospective study, the success, adverse event rates, and patient tolerability of ERCP when performed under AAS versus EDCS.
We do ERCP procedure (Endoscopic procedure with the help of x-rays) for a variety of reasons such as bile duct stones, bile duct obstruction secondary to bile duct narrowing (Strictures) and for bile leak. The incidence of infection post ERCP is around one in 200. There are some group of patients where this risk is significantly increased. In this high risk group, the risk increases from 1 in 75 to in some diseases 1 in 15 (Described in PIS). There are some reports that some of the infection may be contributed by contamination of bacteria in the scope. This happens even after diligently sterilizing the scope. A multi-centre study reported that the risk of contamination is as high as 39% but what we do not know is how many resulted in bacterial infection. We do not know what percentage of infection is secondary to the above. The new single use duodenoscope has been introduced in to the market to minimise the risk of post ERCP infection. It is CE marked and a single centre study reported that the above performance of the above scope was comparable to the standard reusable scope. We want to assess the scope simultaneously in multiple different hospitals. In addition, we also want to assess the cost consequence to the NHS for using the above scope. Hence we want to assess the performance of the scope in the high risk groups for infection.
The study aimed to identify risk factors for post-ERCP pancreatitis(PEP) after ESWL, and the relationship between the occurrence of post-ESWL pancreatitis and PEP.
It was a study aimed to determine the effectivity of benzydamine hydrochloride gargling in reducing propofol consumption in the Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedure.
Participants in this study will be undergoing a procedure called an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). This procedure is most commonly performed to help treat conditions affecting specific areas of the digestive system called the pancreas and bile ducts. Patients will consent to allow the study physician to access these areas of the digestive system by making a cut using a technique called a needle-knife fistulotomy. If the physician is unable to gain access through this method, they will make the cut using a technique called a sphincterotomy.
A periampullary lesion may be begin as duodenal adenoma, ampullary adenoma, gall stone pregnant ampulla, Stricture, or periampullary lipoma, or malignant as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, distal CBD cholangiocarcinoma, ampullary carcinoma and periampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma. The aim of the study is to detect incidence of different types of periampullary lesions detected by ERCP in Assuit University Hospital and the role of ERCP in early detection, diagnosis and management and diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of biopsy and brush cytology taken by ERCP in a period of 1 years starting from June 2017 to June 2018.
Endoscopic implantation of plastic or covered metal stents is widely used in a variety of benign pancreaticobiliary diseases, including duct stricture, large or difficult stones, bile or pancreatic juice leak, etc. There are some late-stage adverse events after stent insertion, such as stent occlusion, proximal or distal migration, secondary duct injury and failure of stent removal, etc. The longer the stents were inserted, more likely the adverse events would happen. Although the optimal time of stent placement has not been well established, it has been recommended that plastic stent should be removed/exchanged within 3-4 months and covered metal stent be removed within 6 months. However, it was not uncommon that patients with stent implantation did not follow the recommendation of further stent management by endoscopists. Many methods have been used to improve the adherence of patients in medical service. With the advance of mobile technology and popular use of mobile phones, it was believed that the patient-centered outcome could be improved by mobile telecommunication with the timely support of a patient by a health professional. Thus we hypothesize that mobile technology, reminding the patients the necessity of stent management in time by short message service (SMS), might increase the patient adherence in patients with benign pancreaticobiliary diseases after ERCP.
Endoscopic biliary sphincterotomy is a common and important procedure for biliary access and therapy during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Bleeding is one of the important complications related to sphincterotomy. This study determines the role of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) in preventing post-sphincterotomy bleeding in patients undergoing ERCP and sphincterotomy.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the use of drotaverine hydrochloride versus hyoscine-N-butylbromide in reducing duodenal motility during diagnostic and therapeutic ERCP.
