Clinical trials

This observational study aims to retrospectively determine if clips can prevent post-polypectomy bleeding in adults who have received restarted anticoagulants after a colorectal polypectomy, using a large, single-center patient registry. The main question it aims to answer is: Can clips prevent post-polypectomy bleeding in adults who have received restarted anticoagulants after a colorectal polypectomy? Researchers will compare adults who received preventive clipping after a polypectomy with those who did not, regarding colorectal bleeding after receiving restarted anticoagulants. Participants have undergone a colorectal polypectomy and received restarted anticoagulants (acetylsalicylic acid excluded) after the procedure.

The aim of this prospective randomized study is to evaluate whether telemedical assistance via SmartGlasses is equivalent to physical presence in teaching Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) in terms of examination success and safety. Endoscopic papilla cannulation is a key skill for successful ERCP and therefore a measurable primary endpoint of the study. This can be measured as the time (in seconds/minutes) between stable visualization of the papilla and successful endoscopic cannulation of the target structure (bile duct or pancreatic duct).
