ERCP Biliary Cannulation Success Using ESGE Algorithm

NCT06380543 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2025-05-13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Papillary cannulation attempts have been shown to be an independent predictor of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) when they are repeated more than 5 times or for 5 minutes or when the pancreatic duct is opacified or cannulated by using guidewire more than 1 time. In order to reduce complications, the 2016 ESGE guideline recommends a precise sequence of alternative cannulation techniques to the primary guidewire approach before exceeding the stated limits. However, there are no published data about the routinary application of this biliary cannulation algorithm.

The investigators hypothesised that the ESGE algorithm predicts an increased cannulation success. Nevertheless, it's unclear if this benefit is also associated with a decreased risk of complications, mainly post-procedural pancreatitis.
