Abstract
Consecutive patients with normal PT (INR ≤1.3) prior to ERCP were included. Presence or absence of PSB was recorded and correlated with the patients' clinicodemographic profile and Vitamin K administration. Factors with p value ≤0.1 on bivariate analysis were entered into logistic regression analysis to determine independent predictors of PSB. Sixty-two (62) patients with normal PT were included. On bivariate analysis, Vitamin K administration is not a significant predictor of PSB (p value = 0.420); whereas gender (p value = 0.038), previous hepatobiliary surgery (p value = 0.078) and serum creatinine levels (p value = 0.060) were identified as predictors for PSB. On logistic regression analysis, there was a trend for increased bleeding in males (adjusted OR=2.57 (95%CI 0.46, 14.52)) and those with previous hepatobiliary surgery (adjusted OR=2.85 (95%CI 0.50, 16.11), but did not reach statistical significance (p value= 0.285, 0.237 respectively).
