Feasibility and Safety of Supraglottic Oxygen Delivery Via an Endotracheal Tube for Non-intubated ERCP Anesthesia: A Two-Stage Phase II Clinical Study

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a technique for evaluating the bile duct, pancreatic duct, and ampulla. Hypoxia is the most common cardiopulmonary complication during ERCP, with a reported rate of 16.2 to 39.2%. The key to preventing hypoxia is to ensure the sufficient oxygenation and ventilation of patients during these procedures. The commonly used approaches to treat hypoxia with a non-instrumented airway are increasing the oxygen flow and lifting the jaw, applying with both hands, displacing the jaw upwards and anteriorly, which allowed the upper airway to remain open. We hypothesized that the supraglottic oxygen delivery via an endotracheal tube can reduce the incidence of hypoxia in patients under deep sedation during ERCP.

COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway in Sedated Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography for Patients

Hypoxia represents the prevailing adverse occurrence during the sedation of patients undergoing Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with propofol. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block , oxygenation support, and oropharyngeal airway management. This device has been purposefully designed to cater to the unique requirements of endoscopic procedures. The principal objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway in reducing the incidence of hypoxia in patients undergoing ERCP under sedation.

Remaxol® Used in the Treatment of Patients With Gallstone Disease Complicated With Obstructive Jaundice

Obstructive jaundice is observed in 10-80 % of gallstone disease cases. The conventional tactics for the management of patients with obstructive jaundice is to remove biliary hypertension by using endoscopic or minimally invasive methods. The final surgical treatment is performed after jaundice reduction and normalization of hepatic functions. We suppose that the administration of the drug Remaxol (Inosine + Meglumine + Methionine + Nicotinamide + Succinic acid) during the perioperative period shortens jaundice duration and decreases the complications rate.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography in Patients With Obstructive Jaundice

Evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) compared with Ultrasound and Computed Tomography (CT) in patients with obstructive jaundice taking findings of ERCP/ PTC and histopathology as gold standard.

Evaluation of the Use of a Biodegradable Endoprothesis in the Prevention of Post-Endoscopic Retrograde CholoangioPancreatography Pancreatitis

The use of an endoprothesis in a pancreatic duct is a measure to minimize the incidence and severity of Post-Endoscopic Retrograde CholoangioPancreatography Pancreatitis. In this study we will evaluate the use of a Biodegradable Endoprothesis: Archimede Fast Biodegradable Pancreatic Stent in patients with high risk of Post-Endoscopic Retrograde CholoangioPancreatography Pancreatitis.The ARCHIMEDES Fast biodegradable pancreatic stent will be placed during the Endoscopic Retrograde CholoangioPancreatography. The efficacy and the security of the device will be evaluated.

A New Strategy for Preoperative Drainage of Resectable Pancreatic Head Cancer Combined Severe Obstructive Jaundice

Severe obstructive jaundice caused by pancreatic head cancer usually requires preoperative biliary drainage, but its necessity and effectiveness are controversial, and specific strategies lack clear standards. This study proposed a new strategy for preoperative biliary drainage using serum prealbumin as the main evaluation index, and compared it with the traditional strategy using serum total bilirubin as the main evaluation index. Through a randomized, controlled, multicenter prospective study, we explored the effects of different drainage strategies on the incidence of in-hospital complications and long-term prognosis of patients with resectable pancreatic head cancer, guided clinical decisions on preoperative drainage time and surgical timing, and provided high-quality evidence-based medicine for preoperative biliary drainage of pancreatic head cancer.
