Timing of CHolecystectomy in Severe PAncreatitis
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare outcomes for interval or early laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with moderately severe and severe pancreatitis. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: To establish whether there is a difference in surgical outcomes comparing patients diagnosed with severe or moderately severe …
Comparison of the Effectiveness of Paracetamol With Ibuprofen or Paracetamol With Metamizole in Treating Pain in Acute Pancreatitis in Children
The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness and tolerance of pain treatment in AP in children using intravenous paracetamol in combination with ibuprofen or paracetamol in combination with metamizole. The study is prospective, interventional, and randomized.
Necrosectomy With Cryotechnology for Accelerated Removal
Pancreatic necrosis is a serious complication of acute pancreatitis. Pancreatic necrosis involves the irreversible death of pancreatic tissue, which can lead to severe health issues, including infections and an increased risk of death. An endoscopic procedure called direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN) is typically performed to remove this necrotic pancreatic tissue …
Corticosteroids to Treat Pancreatitis
This research is being done to determine if the administration of a short course of intravenous hydrocortisone, an anti-inflammatory medication, to patients with severe acute pancreatitis will improve their clinical outcomes and decrease the length of hospitalization. We think that because inflammation in the body drives the progression of pancreatitis, …
Scrambler Therapy in Chronic Pancreatitis
The investigators will enroll adults with chronic pancreatitis who have persistent abdominal pain not relieved by standard treatments. This study will test the feasibility and effectiveness of Scrambler Therapy, a non-invasive FDA-cleared device that delivers "non-pain" electrical signals through the skin to retrain the brain's pain perception. Participants will undergo …
Endotherapy and/or Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy for Painless Chronic Pancreatitis
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is caused by factors such as genetics and the environment, leading to the destruction of pancreatic tissue, infiltration of inflammatory cells, and progressive fibrosis of the pancreas. As the disease progresses, pancreatic tissue is damaged, resulting in impaired endocrine and exocrine functions, manifesting as symptoms like steatorrhea …
Precise Endoscopic Application of Nitroglycerin in Preventing Post-ERCP Pancreatitis
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a technically demanding procedure combining endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat pancreaticobiliary disorders such as bile duct stones, strictures, and cholangitis. Despite its therapeutic value, ERCP carries a relatively high complication risk of about 10%, with severe complications occurring in roughly 24% of those …
Simvastatin Treatment to Improve Patient-reported Outcomes in Patients With Chronic Pancreatitis
The purpose of this pilot study to examine the feasibility and acceptability of simvastatin in adults with Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis (RAP) and Chronic Pancreatitis (CP).
Novel Cellular Therapy for the Treatment of Pain Associated With Chronic Pancreatitis
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether adult stem cells, called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) collected from the patient's bone marrow can help reduce pain caused by chronic pancreatitis and improve pancreatic function.
Safety and Efficacy of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Associated With Chronic Pancreatitis Pain
This protocol aims to test whether an infusion of allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) can reduce pain associated with chronic pancreatitis (CP) and explore potential mechanisms of MSC action.
