Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To investigate the technical success of pancreatoscopy-guided EHL, in casu clearance of main pancreatic duct stones, in patients with symptomatic chronic pancreatitis due to obstructive distal main pancreatic duct stones who did not undergo previous endoscopic or surgical treatment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. To evaluate the clinical success of pancreatoscopy-guided EHL, defined as reduction in pain scores and opiate usage. 2. To evaluate the safety profile of pancreatoscopy-guided EHL. 3. To assess the need for hospitalization for pain and/or a flares of chronic pancreatitis. 4. To evaluate the total number of ERPs with or without repeat pancreatoscopy-guided EHL to achieve total or partial stone clearance (excluding procedures scheduled for dilatation therapy of a concomitant stricture. 5. To evaluate the perceived burden and quality-of-life (QoL). 6. To evaluate health resources utilizations / direct medical costs. | — |
