Abstract
Early application of NKS during difficult cannulation does not increase the risk of PEP. The risk of PEP increases greatly after 7-8 attempts at or failure of cannulation. Further studies are required to assess whether early implementation of NKS during difficult cannulation reduces the development of PEP.
