  • on the organization models of the Endoscopic Units performing ERCP in Italy
  • on the previous and/or ongoing training of the endoscopists performing ERCP
  • on the clinical characteristics of patients undergoing ERCP in Italy as well as on the outcome

Quality of ERCP in Italy has been object of various, mainly retrospective studies in Italy, but it has never systematically and prospectively evaluated in a large prospective series.

The study consists of 3 phases:

  1. Collection of the information on the Endoscopic Unit and on the endoscopists who performed ERCP in the center
  2. Collection of data regarding consecutive ERCPs performed in adult patients in each center including demographic, clinical and procedural information
