RCT | Disposable elevator cap duodenoscopes reduce microbial contamination during ERCP
30 Jan, 2023 | 00:49h | UTC
Commentary on Twitter
In this RCT of 520 ERCP patients, disposable elevator cap duodenoscopes reduced persistent contamination (RR 0.34, 95% CI 0.16–0.75), with no differences in performance (technical success 94.6% vs. 90.7%, P=.13) or safety outcomes. https://t.co/km87WyxsvR
