This trial tests whether parecoxib or indomethacin works better at preventing pancreatitis, a common complication after a procedure called ERCP. Participants will receive one of the two medicines before the procedure, and the study will track which one is safer and more effective.
This early-stage hospital study tests whether pirfenidone is safe and tolerable for people with acute pancreatitis that may become severe. It may help by reducing the risk of complications, while researchers carefully track side effects.
This study compares two common pain relievers—ketorolac and morphine—given through an IV to children with acute abdominal pain. It aims to find which works better and has fewer side effects for this condition.
This trial tests whether pirfenidone, an oral medication that may reduce scarring and inflammation, can help relieve pain in people with chronic pancreatitis. If you have ongoing pain or frequent flare-ups, this study could offer a new treatment option.
This trial tests a pain medicine given through an IV for children who are in the hospital with sudden (acute) pain, like after surgery or an injury. It aims to see if it helps control pain and is safe.
This trial tests whether an epidural (a numbing shot near the spine) can reduce pain and improve recovery in people with severe pancreatitis who have early problems with their lungs, heart, or kidneys. It is designed for people in the intensive care unit.
