Summary

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a commonly performed endoscopic procedure used to treat pancreato-biliary pathology. Acute pancreatitis or post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP), is the most common major complication of ERCP, which is reported to occur in 2-10% of patients overall (ranging from 2-4% in low risk patients up to 8-40% in high-risk patients). Hydration is a mainstay of treatment for acute pancreatitis, independent of etiology. Aggressive hydration has also been shown to decrease incidence of PEP. Rectal NSAIDs, including Indomethacin, has a proven role in prevention of PEP. Though both aggressive hydration and rectal indomethacin are efficacious in preventing PEP, there is no head to head trial comparing the efficacy of these two therapeutic modalities. Thus, the aim is to determine whether aggressive intravenous peri-procedural hydration or high dose rectal indomethacin immediately after ERCP decrease the incidence of PEP. The investigator's hypothesis is that prophylactic treatment with aggressive intravenous hydration is not inferior to rectal indomethacin in preventing PEP.
