About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Randomized, Controlled Trial of Air Insufflation Versus Carbon Dioxide Insufflation During Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).

To assess the safety and efficacy of CO2 insufflations during ERCP

  1. Primary objective: To assess the patient's symptoms, abdominal pain and abdominal distension post procedure (ERCP) in the study group.
  2. Secondary objective:

Endoscopist:

  • To assess the adequacy of bowel distension for adequate luminal visualization
  • To assess the peristaltic movement during the ERCP

Anesthetist:

  • To measure the PCO2 level in patient post procedure.
  • To assess the amount of sedation required during the procedure.
  • To assess saturation and vital signs through out the procedure.
  • To assess requirement of buscopan.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient comfort post ERCP

    the pain score measures using Visual Analog scale (VAs - 1 to 10 cm scale )

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Abdominal distention prior and post ERCP

    The abdominal girth was measured prior to patient shifted to ERCP table. The immdiately post ERCP the abdominal girth measured. A fixed point is marked at the umblical regiem to maintain the site of abdominal girth.

    Measured: 5 minutes
