Scientific titleThe value of plugging percutaneous biliary drain tracts following drain removal
Study objectives1. Does the use of medical collagen ('LYOSTYPT') stop bile leak following removal of percutaneous biliary drains?
2. Does the prevention of bile leak lead to a decrease in complications such as pain, fever and raised inflammatory markers?
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedObstructive jaundice
InterventionPatients with obstructive jaundice not amenable to endoscopic treatment (primary investigation and treatment modality) referred for:
PTC (percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography)
+/ - External percutaneous drain
+/ - Internal drainage (stent) as a one stage procedure.
Wait for bilirubin to fall, temperature to settle and biliary tree to decompress. Patients re-attend the radiology department for drain removal.
Randomisation to drain tract plugged with collagen or drain not plugged.
Follow-up on ward by research nurses days 1, 2, 3 and 5 (both groups).
