NCT05600270

Brief Summary

The investigators aim is to compare outcomes between an angled-tip guidewire and a straight-tip guidewire in cannulation of the common bile duct during ERCP. This is a randomized, controlled, single-blinded study. The primary outcome is success of cannulation and secondary outcomes are incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis, procedure duration, and rate of complication between the angled wire and straight wire.
