Filter by:The study is a prospective evaluation of the microbial assessment in patients undergoing to ERC with naive papilla; the population includes all the indication to biliary drainage.
The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of endoscopic scissors cutting nasobiliary ducts in the treatment of malignant hilar biliary tract stenosis
The study is primarily an exploratory study of quality registry data for a swedish national cohort of patients who have undergone gallbladder surgery or ERCP, with the aim of investigating the occurrence of pain and PONV (Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting) after gallbladder surgery. Furthermore, the investigators will explorer if there are factors related to the patient or the surgical procedure that are associated with a higher risk of PONV or pain.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive disease of the biliary tree, which represents one of the most frequent indications for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLTx) in developed countries. There are several lines of evidence that dietary gluten/gliadin displays chronic pro-inflammatory, LPS-like properties. Recent evidence demonstrated the protective effect of gluten- free diet (GFD) in autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome, non-celiac gluten sensitivity and some neurological disorders. This study is intended to explore therapeutic effect of GFD on PSC and IBD in prospective self-controlled mono-centric intervention study. Hypothesis: Avoidance of gluten in diet will reduce progression, symptoms and intestinal inflammation in PSC and UC patients.
to compare the outcomes between doing ERCP and laparoscopic cholecystectomy in one session Vs staged management
This is a pre-market, prospective, randomized (1:1), multicenter, pivotal clinical investigation. The purpose of this investigation is to determine the clinical performance of GATT-Patch as compared with SURGICEL® Original for the management of minimal, mild, or moderate bleeding during minimally invasive liver and gallbladder surgery.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathway represents a peri-operative multimodal management aiming at a decrease in surgical aggression and an improved patient rehabilitation, in order to reduce postoperative morbidity, length of hospital stay and, as an important secondary consequence, overall costs. ERAS pathways have been successfully implemented in many surgical managements in the Western world, but very few data exist on ERAS in developing countries. This project aims at the prospective evaluation of ERAS pathway implementation in cholecystectomies in CHUK, Rwanda. The first 50 patients will be prospectively evaluated and compared to the last 50 patients who underwent cholecystectomy before ERAS pathway implementation.
Patients admitted to hospital due to obstructive biliary disease secondary to benign and malign etiologies, undergoing ERCP, will be selected. Bile sample will be taken in ERCP procedure with sterile technique. Its macroscopic appearance will be assessed and biliary culture will be performed.
The purpose of the study is to compare the success rates of procedure success and complication rates in patients undergoing Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) using two types of currently available endoscopes. These are (1) duodenoscope with a Single-use distal cover or (2) a conventional reusable duodenoscope.
The transparent cap-assisted endoscope has the function of fixing field of view and increasing visual space. It has been widely used in gastrointestinal examination and treatment. In this study, the investigators intend to apply transparent cap-assisted choledochoscopy to endoscopic biliary tract exploration and biopsy to investigate whether transparent cap-assisted choledochoscopy can improve operability, visual field clarity, and biopsy accuracy.
