New approach tested for severe pancreatitis from gallstones

NCT ID NCT00987428

Summary

This study tested whether using an early ultrasound scan (EUS) followed by a procedure to clear bile duct stones could help patients with severe gallstone pancreatitis recover better. It compared this early approach against standard conservative treatment. The trial was small and ended early, so results are limited.
