Summary

This study tests whether rinsing the bile duct opening with cold water, on top of the usual rectal anti-inflammatory medication, can better prevent pancreatitis after an ERCP procedure. About 150 adults needing ERCP will be randomly assigned to get either the standard medication alone or the medication plus cold water rinse. The goal is to see if the combination reduces the rate and severity of post-procedure pancreatitis.
