Pure cut or endocut for biliary sphincterotomy? a multicenter randomized clinical trial

Endocut mode may increase thermal injury leading to higher rates of PEP and delayed bleeding, whereas Pure cut is associated with increased intraprocedural bleeding without clinical repercussion. The electric current mode is not related to perforation or infection. Further RCTs assessing the impact of electric current on AEs with overlapping preventive measures such as rectal NSAIDs and hyperhydration are needed.The study was submitted to the Brazilian Clinical Trials Platform (http://www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br) under the registry number RBR-5d27tn.
