Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)
Interventions
Device: aScope™ Duodeno endoscope and aBox™ Duodeno
Registration Number
NCT04628949
Lead Sponsor
Ambu A/S
Brief Summary

This study will assess how the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope performs in procedures that treat problems of the bile and pancreatic ducts.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, non-randomized, single-arm post-market observational clinical study that will assess the single-use Ambu® aScope™ Duodeno for non-emergent, standard of care (SOC) ERCP procedures.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate the ERCP procedural success rates with the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope when completing the ERCP procedure for the intended indication(s).Procedure Completion (Day 0)

Procedure success will be defined as the successful completion of the ERCP procedure with the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope. The procedural success rate will be the incidence rate of success for the ERCP procedure.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate the device deficiency rate for the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope.Procedure Completion (Day 0)

Incidence rate of device deficiencies as defined as either a device failure or device malfunction for the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope during ERCP procedure.

To evaluate physician satisfaction with the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope.Procedure Completion (Day 0)

Physician reported outcomes questionnaire on physician satisfaction with the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope for ERCP procedures.

To evaluate rate of conversion to a reusable endoscope, other endoscope or an open procedure from the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope during the ERCP procedure.Procedure Completion (Day 0)

Rate of conversion will be measured by the incidence rate of when a conversion to a different endoscope or open procedure is necessitated during the ERCP procedure with the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope.

To establish comprehensive performance attributes of aScope™ Duodeno endoscope through its use by multiple endoscopists in conducting various ERCP procedures.Procedure Completion (Day 0)

Procedure success for sub categories of ERCP procedures will be defined as the successful completion of the ERCP procedure with the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope. The procedural success rate will be the incidence rate of success for the stratified sub-categories of ERCP procedures with the the aScope™ Duodeno endoscope.

To evaluate rate of successful completion of a converted ERCP procedure.Procedure Completion (Day 0)

Successful completion will be measured by the incidence rate of success for converted ERCP procedure as stratified by the conversion method (reusable scope, other endoscope, other procedure).
