About this trial

A multicenter, prospective, controlled randomized study to investigate the optimal duration of protective pancreatic stents after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).

The primary endpoint is the complication rate that can be clinically attributed to the remaining pancreatic prosthesis or its removal in the study groups. Secondary endpoints are spontaneous removal of the pancreatic stent, length of hospital stay, rate of follow-up examinations per group, influencing factors, and a possible exploratory analysis.

  • standard group

    Device

    Removal at intervals of 12 hours up to a maximum of 10 days after the index ERCP

Group B: Interventional - delayed removalExperimental treatment 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events

Side effects (number and type) which occur due to the stent insertion, retention after more than 10 days and/or after the removal of the stent

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Spontaneous dislocation

Due the examinations by ultrasound and x-ray or endoscopy, the rate of how many patients had a spontaneous dislocation will be evaluated

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment 6 months
2

Follow-up examinations for pancreatic stent detection

Follow-up examinations for pancreatic stent detection - retention or spontaneous dislocation - by ultrasound, x-ray or endoscopy examination

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months
3

ERCP procedures

Influence of measures taken during ERCP on the probability of spontaneous stent dislocation as well of patients characteristics (pancreaticobiliary disease) * questions about procedures made during the ERCP (papillotomy, stent insertion, using metallic stent, balloon dilatation) * questions about patients characteristics (chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic tumor, cholangiocarcinoma, stone extraction)

Time frame
During visit Nr 1 (Day 10 after enrollment)
4

Days of hospital stay

The total number of days participants remain hospitalized from the date of admission until the date of discharge.

Time frame
From the date of hospital admission (Day 1) up to hospital discharge, assessed up to 90 days.
