Aggressive Fluid Hydration for the Prevention of Post-ERCP Pancreatitis

March 26, 2017 updated by: Nonthalee Pausawasdi, Mahidol University
Aggressive hydration with lactated Ringer's solution (LRS) has been shown in a preliminary research to reduce the incidence of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis. This randomized, controlled trial was designed to assess the effect of peri-procedural aggressive intravenous hydration with LRS on the incidence of post ERCP pancreatitis.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients underwent first-time ERCP were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either LRS at a rate of 150 ml/hr starting 2 hours prior to procedure, and continued during and after procedure to complete 24 hours (aggressive hydration) or LRS at a rate calculated by the Holliday-Segar method given peri-procedurally as described earlier (standard hydration). Visual analog scale, serum amylase, lipase, C-reactive protein (CRP), and urine analysis were assessed prior to procedure and 24 hours after. The primary endpoint was post ERCP pancreatitis defined as new or increased epigastric pain persisting for ≥24 hours, elevation of amylase or lipase >3 times the upper limit of normal.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Placebo Comparator: standard hydration
Patients underwent first-time ERCP to receive standard fluid hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution at a rate calculated by the Holliday-Segar method given peri-procedurally starting 2 hours prior to procedure, and continued during and after procedure to complete 24 hours.
Drug: Lactated Ringer's solution
Standard fluid hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution is calculated based on Holiday Segar's equation Aggressive hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution is defined as administration of 150 ml/hour of fluid

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
post ERCP pancreatitis
Time Frame: 24 hours
Post ERCP pancreatitis is defined as hyperamylasemia (amylase >3 times the upper limit of normal [300 U/L]) and pancreatic pain (epigastric abdominal pain radiating to the back scored by patient as development of or increase of pain ≥3 on a 0-10 visual analogue pain scale and persisting for ≥24 hours after ERCP). In those who had pain before the procedure, pancreatic pain is defined as an increase of ≥3 on the 0-10 visual analogue scale.
24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
severity of post ERCP pancreatitis
Time Frame: 24 hours
severity is defined by length of hospital stay, mild pancreatitis is defined by hospitalization of 48 hours, moderate pancreatitis is defined by hospitalization of more than 48 hours without additional intervention, severe pancreatitis is defined by hospitalization of greater than 72 hours and/or requiring intervention
24 hours
