Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Successful MPD Cannulation Rates

    technical success rate of pancreatic cannulation

    during ERCP procedure

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Successful clearance of MPD stones

    during ERCP procedure

  • post-ERCP complications

    30 days

  • severity of post-ERCP complications

    30 days

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Treatment-related costs in RMB from initial enrollment to the end of the study

    through endotherapy completion, an average of 14days

  • The hospitalization time

    through endotherapy completion, an average of 14days

Study Arms (2)

Endoscopic group <12h

EXPERIMENTAL

The patients received intravenous analgesia (flurbiprofen and remifentanil) before the ESWL (Compact Delta II; Dornier Med Tech, Wessling, Germany). After the last ESWL session, the patients are treated with following ERCP within 12h. ERCP was performed under conscious sedation with intramuscular administration of diazepam 2.5-5.0 mg and pethidine 25-50 mg. If necessary, endoscopic sphincterotomy was performed. A dilating bougie or balloon will be used to dilate the stenosis after sphincterotomy. Standard techniques (i.e., extraction basket, extraction balloon, or both) will be used for stone removal. A pancreatic duct stent for drainage and nasopancreatic catheters will be inserted for temporary drainage if necessary.

Procedure: time interval between ESWL and ERCP is 12hDrug: morphine, buprenorphine, pethidine, tramaldol, metamizole and acetylsalicylacid (Analgesics)

Endoscopic group ≥12 h

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The patients received intravenous analgesia (flurbiprofen and remifentanil) before the ESWL (Compact Delta II; Dornier Med Tech, Wessling, Germany). The time scale between the last ESWL session and following ERCP is greater than 12h. ERCP was performed under conscious sedation with intramuscular administration of diazepam 2.5-5.0 mg and pethidine 25-50 mg. If necessary, endoscopic sphincterotomy was performed. A dilating bougie or balloon will be used to dilate the stenosis after sphincterotomy. Standard techniques (i.e., extraction basket, extraction balloon, or both) will be used for stone removal. A pancreatic duct stent for drainage and nasopancreatic catheters will be inserted for temporary drainage if necessary.

Procedure: time interval between ESWL and ERCP is greater than 12hDrug: morphine, buprenorphine, pethidine, tramaldol, metamizole and acetylsalicylacid (Analgesics)

Interventions

The patients received intravenous analgesia before the ESWL. After the last ESWL session, the patients are treated with following ERCP within 12h.

Also known as: ESWL, ERCP
Endoscopic group <12h

The patients received intravenous analgesia before the ESWL. After the last ESWL session, the patients are treated with following ERCP ≥12 h.

Also known as: ESWL, ERCP
Endoscopic group ≥12 h

Analgesics administrated include morphine, buprenorphine, pethidine, tramaldol, metamizole and acetylsalicylacid. They will only be administrated as needed.
