Although rectal administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is recommended as the standard pharmacologic modality to prevent postendoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP), vigorous periprocedural hydration (vHR) with lactated Ringer's solution (LR) is emerging as an effective prophylaxis modality for PEP. There has been no head-to-head comparison between these 2.
This was a single-center, randomized, open-label, noninferiority, parallel-assigned, equal allocation, controlled clinical trial in a tertiary care hospital. Consecutive adults referred for ERCP, satisfying predefined inclusion criteria, underwent simple randomization and blinded allocation into 2 groups. Those allocated to vHR received intravenous LR at 3 mL/kg/h during procedure, 20 ml/kg bolus immediately afterward, and then at 3 mL/kg/h for another 8 hours. Those randomized to rectal Indomethacin received only per-rectal 100 mg suppository immediately post-ERCP. Assuming PEP of 9% in Indomethacin arm and noninferiority margin of 4%, we calculated sample size of 171 patients in each arm for 80% power and α-error 5%. Primary outcome was incidence of PEP, within 1 week, as defined by Cotton's criteria. All analysis were done by intention-to-treat.
Between October, 2017 to February, 2018, 521 patients were assessed. In all, 352 were enrolled, 178 randomized to vHR, and 174 to per-rectal Indomethacin. Baseline details and ERCP outcomes were not different between 2 groups. PEP occurred in 6 (1.7%) overall, with 1 (0.6%) in hydration arm, and 5 (2.9%) in indomethacin arm; an absolute risk reduction of 2.3% (95% confidence interval: 0.9%-3.5%) and odds ratio of 0.19 (95% confidence interval: 0.02-1.65). Three patients developed severe PEP, all receiving indomethacin.
vHR with LR is noninferior to postprocedure per-rectal Indomethacin for PEP prevention (ClinicalTrials.govID:NCT03629600).
尽管推荐直肠给药非甾体抗炎药作为预防内镜逆行胰胆管造影术(ERCP)后胰腺炎(PEP)的标准药物治疗方式,但采用乳酸林格氏液(LR)进行术中积极补液(vHR)正成为一种有效的PEP预防方式。这两种方法尚未进行过直接比较。
这是一项在三级医院进行的单中心、随机、开放标签、非劣效性、平行分配、等量分配的对照临床试验。连续纳入符合预定义纳入标准的成年ERCP患者,进行简单随机分组并盲法分配至两组。分配至vHR组的患者在手术期间以3 mL/kg/h的速度静脉输注LR,术后立即给予20 ml/kg的静脉推注,然后再以3 mL/kg/h的速度输注8小时。随机分配至直肠给予吲哚美辛组的患者仅在ERCP术后立即直肠给予100 mg栓剂。假设吲哚美辛组的PEP发生率为9%,非劣效界值为4%,我们计算出每组样本量为171例患者,检验效能为80%,α错误为5%。主要结局是根据Cotton标准定义的1周内PEP的发生率。所有分析均采用意向性分析。
在2017年10月至2018年2月期间,共评估了521例患者。总共352例患者入组,178例随机分配至vHR组,174例随机分配至直肠给予吲哚美辛组。两组之间的基线细节和ERCP结果无差异。总体上有6例(1.7%)发生PEP,补液组1例(0.6%),吲哚美辛组5例(2.9%);绝对风险降低2.3%(95%置信区间:0.9%-3.5%),比值比为0.19(95%置信区间:0.02-1.65)。3例患者发生严重PEP,均接受了吲哚美辛治疗。
对于预防PEP,采用LR进行vHR不劣于术后直肠给予吲哚美辛(ClinicalTrials.gov标识符:NCT03629600)。
