Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
post ERCP pancreatitis incidence, measured by the number of patients who developed acute pancreatitis after ERCP - acute pancreatitis will be considered typical abdominal pain associated with increased blood levels of amylase or lipase levels by at least 3 times the upper limit of normality, and / or characteristic radiological image of acute pancreatitis.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
cannulation rate of the bile duct, measured by the number of times that the biliary way could be cannulated.;procedure time, measured in minutes.;pre-cut rate, measured in the number of times the pre-cut technique had to be performed to cannulate the bile duct.
