| Core Tip |
There is controversy about antibiotic prophylaxis in patients undergoing elective endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. This is a systematic review and meta-analysis based on randomized controlled trials that analyzed whether the use of antibiotic prophylaxis is beneficial in preventing complications after this procedure. Outcomes evaluated include the rate of cholangitis, bacteremia, sepsis, pancreatitis, and mortality. Based on this meta-analysis, antibiotic prophylaxis reduces the risk of bacteremia but does not impact the rate of cholangitis, septicemia, pancreatitis, and mortality. |
