Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Technical success

    Image verification of correct PC catheter placement within the gallbladder lumen with subsequent bile aspiration at the time of initial catheter placement

    Up to 1 hour

  • Procedure-related complications

    Complications attributed to the procedure

    Up to 3 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • duration of the procedure

    Up to 1 hour

  • intraprocedural and post-procedural pain

    Up to 12 hours

  • clinical success

    Up to 72 hours

Interventions

PC is a minimally invasive, nonsurgical, image-guided intervention that aims to drain and decompress the gallbladder by placing a pigtail catheter through the abdominal wall into the gallbladder lumen.

Eligibility Criteria

Study Population

All patients requiring PC, irrespective of the underlying cause, comorbidities and indication, and irrespective of patient demographics.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients are going to be excluded from the study if they are younger than 18 years, if they require PC catheter placement under CT guidance (according to the operator's judgement), or if they suffer from severe uncontrollable coagulopathy.
