Official title
Effects of High Intra-procedural Oxygen Fraction on Post-ERCP Pancreatitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Post-ERCP pancreatitis is one of the most common complications accounting for substantial morbidity and mortality. The incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) has been studied in several large clinical trials and ranges from 1.6-15%. However most studies have demonstrated rates around 5%. This complication alone is estimated to cost the US healthcare around $150 million annually. To prevent this complication several pharmacological agents have been studied and no medication has been proved to be consistently effective in preventing this complications. Cyclo-oxygenase, and phospholipase A2 pathways are believed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis and so non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been extensively studied in the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis. One of the landmark studies done on prophylactic NSAIDs for PEP showed that rectal indomethacin significantly reduce the incidence of PEP (PEP developed in 9.2% vs. 16.9% of indomethacin and placebo groups respectively). Since then the use of rectal NSAIDs has become a standard chemo-prophylaxis for prevention of PEP especially in high risk patients. However, newly published meta-analysis showed that the role of peri-procedural rectal Indomethacin is doubtful in patients with average risk for PEP. In this prospective randomized clinical study, we propose to study the effects of supplemental peri-operative oxygen on the incidence of PEP. The effects of high oxygen fraction (FIO2) has extensively been studied in reducing the incidence of surgical site infection, postoperative nausea, vomiting and to prevent postoperative atelectasis. Changing the FIO2 during a procedure can be a simple, inexpensive and low risk intervention to prevent post-procedure complications.
