Lactated Ringer's Solution to Prevent Post-ERCP Pancreatitis

July 10, 2017 updated by: University of South Florida

The Effect of the Use of Lactated Ringer's Solution During ERCP on Rate of Post-endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) Pancreatitis

This is a randomized, double-blinded, controlled trial. This study is a head to head comparison of normal saline (NS) infusion versus Lactated Ringer's (LR) infusion in patients, with the primary outcome of post-ERCP pancreatitis occurrence. Patients will be randomized to either the NS infusion group or the LR infusion group. IVF will be started pre-procedurally and will be continued throughout the procedure. A IVF bolus will be given at the end of the procedure and then continued as a continuous infusion. Our null hypothesis is that there will be no significant difference in the rate of occurrence of post-ERCP pancreatitis between the infusion of LR and NS solutions. Our alternative hypothesis is that patients receiving LR solution infusion will experience a decreased rate of post-ERCP pancreatitis compared to patients receiving NS solution infusion.

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.

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 74 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study
