The composition of the stent microbiome is associated with morbidity and adverse events during endoscopic drainage therapy of pancreatic necroses and pseudocysts
The composition of the stent microbiome is associated with prolonged hospital stays and adverse events during endoscopic drainage therapy, highlighting the need for effective infection control to improve patient outcomes. In addition to systemic antibiotic therapy, antimicrobial stent coatings could be a conceivable option to influence the stent microbiome and possibly enhance control of the necrotic microflora.
