Fluids before ERCP to prevent pancreatitis
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests if giving fluids before an ERCP procedure can lower the risk of developing pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). It may help people who have not had this procedure before.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have not had a major ERCP that cut into the bile duct opening before.
- You can have blood drawn the day after the procedure.
- You do not have certain serious heart, lung, kidney, or liver conditions.
- You are not pregnant.

This study tests whether giving lactated Ringer’s solution (a specific IV fluid) during an ERCP procedure can lower the chance of developing post-ERCP pancreatitis (painful pancreas inflammation after the procedure). You may be considered if your ERCP has a higher risk of triggering pancreatitis.
This Phase 3 study tests whether putting an anti-inflammatory medicine into the rectum (indomethacin) plus taking an immune-suppressing pill (tacrolimus) works better than using the two medicines in a different combination to prevent pancreatitis after an ERCP procedure. If you qualify, you may be assigned to one of the treatment options to lower your risk of post-ERCP pancreas inflammation.
This study looks at how genes and medication processing in the body may relate to getting pancreatitis after an ERCP procedure. If you are having an ERCP and meet the criteria, your data and possibly samples may help researchers understand who is at higher risk.
This trial tests whether using rectal NSAIDs (a type of painkiller) with or without a small tube (stent) in the pancreas can prevent pancreatitis after ERCP. It's for people who are at higher risk for this complication.
This study looks at ways to improve the quality of ERCP, a procedure that uses a flexible tube with a camera to look at the bile and pancreatic ducts. It is open to adults who can understand the study information and are having their first ERCP during this hospital stay.
This study tests whether giving IV (through-the-vein) fluids during/around an ERCP procedure can lower the risk of painful pancreas inflammation afterward. It may help patients by reducing a common complication after ERCP.
