Overview

Brief Summary

To assess the safety and efficacy of CO2 insufflations during ERCP

  1. Primary objective:

    To assess the patient's symptoms, abdominal pain and abdominal distension post procedure (ERCP) in the study group.

  2. Secondary objective:

Endoscopist:

  • To assess the adequacy of bowel distension for adequate luminal visualization
  • To assess the peristaltic movement during the ERCP

Anesthetist:

  • To measure the PCO2 level in patient post procedure.
  • To assess the amount of sedation required during the procedure.
  • To assess saturation and vital signs through out the procedure.
  • To assess requirement of buscopan.
