Effect of Disposable Elevator Cap Duodenoscopes on Persistent Microbial Contamination and Technical Performance of Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: The ICECAP Randomized Clinical Trial – JAMA Internal Medicine

Commentary: Disposable elevator cap duodenoscopes may reduce contamination in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography – the ICECAP trial – JAMA Internal Medicine

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
