Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a procedure physicians use to examine the pancreatic or bile ducts utilizing a combination of endoscopy and fluoroscopy to capture X-ray images of the ducts. Unfortunately, this procedure is not without risks. After undergoing ERCP, patients are typically observed for one hour before discharge. Post-ERCP pancreatitis, the most common adverse complication, can occur after discharge. A newly published Yale-led study, “Clinical Predictive Value of Renalase in Post-ERCP Pancreatitis,” aims to assess whether a patient's renalase level influences the development of pancreatitis following an ERCP procedure.
