Brief Summary

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic ultrasound are increasingly being used to manage complex disease of the bile duct, pancreas and cancer. Gastroenterology patients at the Los Angeles County Hospital presents a unique and diverse patient population. Our aim is to study the biochemical, radiographic, and clinical predictors of bile duct stones. Exploratory aims include the study of the management of cholangitis, bile leaks, GI cancer diagnosis and management, and the management of pancreaticobiliary problems in the underserved. All patients managed by EUS or ERCP at the LA County \& USC University Hospitals will be enrolled in the databaseThe timing, clinical presentation, and objective details of patient presentation are recorded prospectively. Additionally the results of the subsequent ERCP and EUS procedures. Subsequent, clinical course and pathology will also be recorded.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Successful ERCP or EUS

    Completed ERCP or EUS in which objectives of procedure were met.Unsuccessful ERCP will be classified as secondary to technical (such as failed cannulation or stent placement) versus sedation failure in which patient could not be sedated.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Bile Duct Stone

    1 year

  • Length of Hospitalization

    1 year

  • Definitive Diagnosis

    1 year

Study Arms (1)

ERCP/EUS

All patients who undergo ERCP and EUS for clinical indications will undergo a detailed prospective assessment of clinical course.

Other: clinical course

Interventions

Detailed presentation including labs, demographics, imaging of those who undergo ERCP/EUS with be prospectively recorded. Details of procedure including sedation strategy and success will be collected. Results of procedure including final pathology results with be recorded.
