What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has emerged as the primary modality in the management of biliary and pancreatic disease. The complications occurring from ERCP can range from mild to fatal. Procedure related complications are Pancreatitis , Bleeding , Infections- Cholangitis, Cholecystitis , Perforations of which Post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is the most common serious adverse event. Reported incidence of PEP is 8.6-10.7% according to studies(overall RCTs).In India it is 6.6% (2020 study). Prevention as well as early detection and management of PEP results in a satisfactory outcome. Multiple RCTs and meta-analyses show rectal indomethacin/diclofenac significantly reduce PEP in average- and high-risk patients; now recommended by ASGE/ESGE for nearly all ERCPs. Other measures for prevention of PEP are prophylactic pancreatic duct stents in high-risk anatomy/instrumentat
