NCT ID NCT07329790
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will track over 2,300 patients in India who undergo ERCP, a procedure to treat bile duct problems. The goal is to measure how often pancreatitis occurs after the procedure and how severe it is. By following standard safety steps, researchers hope to find ways to lower this risk.
