Frailty check could predict oxygen danger during ERCP in seniors
NCT ID NCT07568912
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether being frail increases the risk of dangerously low oxygen levels during a procedure called ERCP in people aged 65 and older. Researchers will assess frailty before the procedure and track oxygen levels during it. The goal is to create a simple tool that helps doctors predict and prevent this complication, making the procedure safer for older patients.

Who is studied
This observational cohort study will enroll elderly patients aged 65 years and older who are scheduled for elective endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) under anesthesia sedation at China-Japan Friendship Hospital. The study population consists of two sequential cohorts: a retrospective cohort of 313 patients with complete electronic health record data and a prospective cohort of 388 patients to be recruited prospectively. Eligible participants include those with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status II-IV and an expected procedure duration of less than 60 minutes, with adequate intraoperative pulse oximetry monitoring.
