NCT03215862

Brief Summary

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.

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

  • Suspicion of Oddi dysfunction
  • Personal history of post-ERCP pancreatitis
  • More than 8 cannulation attempts
  • Precut sphincterotomy
  • Endoscopic papillary balloon dilation of an intact sphincter
  • Endoscopic pancreatic duct sphincterotomy

  • Pancreatic duct cytology acquisition

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients aged less than 18
  • Inability to provide informed consent
  • Pregnancy
  • Active acute pancreatitis
  • Any contraindication to aggressive IVF hydration: evidence of clinical volume overload (peripheral or pulmonary edema), respiratory compromise (oxygen saturation \< 90% on room air), chronic kidney disease (creatinine clearance \< 40 mL/min), systolic congestive heart failure (ejection fraction \< 45%), cirrhosis, and severe electrolyte disturbance with sodium \<130 mEq/L or \>150 mEq/L
