NCT ID NCT04242394
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study followed over 1,000 people who had an ERCP procedure to see if having chronic gallbladder disease increases the chance of complications like infection or inflammation. Researchers tracked issues such as post-ERCP cholecystitis, pancreatitis, and cholangitis. The goal is to help doctors better predict and manage risks for patients with gallbladder problems.
