Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of airway management (a set of medical procedures performed to prevent airway blockage and thus ensure an open path between a patient's lungs and the atmosphere) during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography \[(ERCP), a procedure commonly used to treat conditions of the bile ducts and pancreas\] and the effect on airway complications (problems), time to biliary cannulation (access into bile duct) and total procedure duration (length of time). Two methods are being compared and studied: 1) general endotracheal anesthesia: an inhalation anesthetic (substance that blocks pain) technique in which anesthetic and respiratory gases pass through a tube placed in the trachea (throat) via the mouth or nose vs 2) deep sedation without endotracheal intubation: local anesthesia together with sedation (drug that produces sleep) and analgesia (drug that treats pain) only.
