About this study

Official title: Quality Assessment in ERCP: Risk Factors for Procedure-related Complications in Patients Undergoing ERCP in the Setting of an Endoscopy Training Program

The investigators will prospectively collect patient and procedure-related data in an observational study in order to detect patient and procedure-related risk factors for poor outcome (i.e. technical failure of the procedure; procedure-related complications).

Data will be prospectively reported using standard report forms and patients will be followed up to 30 days to detect late-onset complications.

Read the detailed description

This is an investigator-driven, prospective multicenter trial which analyzes the impact of trainee participation on procedure-related outcome (technical success and procedure-related complications).

All ERCPs in the participating centers will be documented using a standard report form which will require the attending endoscopist to provide data relating to the patient (age, gender, diagnosis, bilirubin levels) and the procedure (including but not limited to the indication, technical aspects including cannulation technique, time to cannulation, degree of trainee involvement - where appropriate, procedure-related adverse events and their outcome).

Because teaching ERCP is not yet a standardized procedure, we aim to assemble a large database, stemming from the experience of several teaching centers in order to identify the main patient and operator-related factors which might influence the outcome of the procedure.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. procedure-related adverse events

    the percentage of patients experiencing procedure-related adverse events (i.e post-ERCP pancreatitis; postERCP cholangitis; perforation; postERCP bleeding or death) occuring within 30 days of the procedure

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. technical failure of the procedure

    percentage of procedures where the operator was unable to achieve the desired therapeutic goal (i.e selective cannulation, stone removal, stenting)

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cholangiopancreatography, Endoscopic Retrograde and Common Bile Duct Lithiasis, run by Clinical Hospital Colentina at 3 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

procedure-related adverse events (time frame: 30 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02698137, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Apr 2020.
