U.S., Feb. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07381478) titled '3degC Saline Injection at the Duodenal Papilla to Prevent Post-ERCP Pancreatitis' on Jan. 24.

Brief Summary: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an endoscopic procedure used to diagnose and treat problems in the bile ducts and pancreas. One of its most common complications is **post-ERCP pancreatitis**.
