Trial Outcomes & Findings for High Volume Lactated Ringer's Solution and Pancreatitis (NCT NCT02050048)

NCT ID: NCT02050048

Last Updated: 2019-09-06

Results Overview

Patients will be monitored after procedure to see if they develop abdominal pain. If so, serum amylase and lipase blood draws will be completed at least once every 24 hours following procedure to monitor the development of post-ERCP pancreatitis. If patients do not develop abdominal pain following the procedure, research staff will follow up with the patients 5 days and 29 days after the procedure to evaluate for the development of post-ERCP pancreatitis and other related or unrelated complications.

Measure
High Volume Group (Intervention Arm)
Patients will be randomized to receive intravenous Lactated Ringer's solution. In the high volume group (intervention arm), patients will receive fluids prior to, during, and after the completion of the procedure. Patients in the high volume group will receive fluids via infusion by the following weight based regimen: * initial bolus of LR prior to ERCP of 7.5 cc/kg over 1 hour * LR fluid infusion during the procedure at 5 cc/kg/hr * Post-procedure bolus of 20 cc/kg over 90 minutes
Low Volume Group (Control Arm)
In the low volume group (control arm), patients will receive fluids at the start of the ERCP. The fluids will be administered via infusion at a rate of 1.5 cc/kg/hr. Fluids may be continued through the 90 minute post-procedure observation period.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed 90 minutes after procedure, 5 days after procedure, and 29 days after procedure

Patients will be monitored after procedure to see if they develop abdominal pain. If so, serum amylase and lipase blood draws will be completed at least once every 24 hours following procedure to monitor the development of post-ERCP pancreatitis. If patients do not develop abdominal pain following the procedure, research staff will follow up with the patients 5 days and 29 days after the procedure to evaluate for the development of post-ERCP pancreatitis and other related or unrelated complications.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Phase II portion (~1 year)

A portion of the study will assess whether there is a significant risk of adverse events related to fluid overload states in the high volume (HV) intervention arm. We anticipate the rate of adverse events in patients randomized to the HV arm to be small. By using more modest, weight based regimens, we aim to optimize benefit while eliminating overly aggressive fluid administration and causing undue harm.
