Prophylactic effect of gabexate mesilate,octreotide and omeprazole on post-ERCP pancreatitis

Abstract

Objective To investigate the prophylactic effect of gabexate mesilate, octreotide and omeprazole on post - ERCP pancreatitis. Methods Two hundred and thirty - five post ERCP patients were randomized into therapeutic group (125 cases) and control group (110 cases). After the operation of ERCP, patients in the therdpeutic group were treated with gabexate mesilate 1 mg/(kg·h) by contin-ous intravenous infusion for 12 hours, Octreotide 0. 1 mg by subcutaneous injection per 12 hours for 12 hours, Omeprazole 40 mg by intravenous infusion per 12 hours for 24 hours. The patients in the control group were applied with intravenous infusion of nermal saline 500 ml. The levels of serum amylase were detected and the incidence of PEP were observed at pre - ERCP and 5 h, 12 h ,24 h post - ERCP, respectively. Results The incidences of post - ERCP pancreatitis in the therapeatic group and control group were 3. 2% and 11. 82% , respectively ( P < 0. 01 ) , and the percentages of hyperamylasemia were 18.4% and 39.09% Respectively ( P <0. 05). Conclusions The combined use of gabexate, meilate, octreotide and omeprazole can reduce the incidences of PEP and hyperamylasemia.
