About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Pancreatitis focused on measuring Extracorporeal Shock Wave lithotripsy(ESWL), Prophylaxis, Indomethacin, Chronic pancreatitis

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • any patient with chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic stones (> 5 mm in diameter) undergoing P-ESWL
  • at least 18 years old
  • provides informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • readmitted to the hospital during the enrollment of the study
  • contraindications to ESWL
  • suspected or established malignancy
  • pancreatic ascites
  • receiving NSAIDs within 7 days
  • contraindication to NSAIDs (including gastrointestinal hemorrhage within 4 weeks or renal dysfunction with serum creatinine >120 μmol/L)
  • presence of coagulopathy or received anticoagulation therapy within 3 days
  • acute pancreatitis within 3 days
  • known active cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease
  • pregnant or breastfeeding women
  • without a rectum (ie, status post-total proctocolectomy)

Sites / Locations

  • Shanghai Changhai Hospital

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Placebo Comparator

Arm Label

Indomethacin

Glycerin

Arm Description

Subjects will be randomized to receive a 100-mg indomethacin suppository 30 min before ESWL.

Subjects will be randomized to receive either a 100-mg identical-appearing placebo (glycerin suppository) 30 min before ESWL.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

the Incidence of Post-ESWL Pancreatitis
Patients were identified as post-ESWL pancreatitis if meeting two out of three criteria: pain consistent with acute pancreatitis; amylase or lipase>3 times normal limit; characteristic findings on imaging, in according to the Revised Atlanta International consensus.

Secondary Outcome Measures

the Incidence and Severity of Asymptomatic Hyperamylasemia and Other Post-ESWL Complications
Asymptomatic hyperamylasemia was defined as an increase in serum amylase compared with pre-ESWL levels and beyond the upper limit of the normal range but showing no related symptoms. Serum amylase will be measured in all study patients at 3 and 24 hours after the procedure and subsequently at clinical discretion. Other post-ESWL complications including bleeding, infection, steinstrasse and perforation. Bleeding is related to clinical evidence,the level of hemoglobin ( measured at 24 hours after the procedure and at clinical discretion) and treatments. Infection is related to temperature and treatment. Steinstrasse is related to abdominal pain degree and the combination of other complications. Perforation is related to treatment.
the Severity of Post-ESWL Pancreatitis Measured as Consensus Definitions for the Major Complications of ERCP(Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography )
Post-ESWL complications are also stratified as mild, moderate and severe depending mainly on the length of hospitalization and the need for invasive treatment.
