[Antibiotic prophylaxis in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures].
Antibiotic prophylaxis is recommended for patients at risk for developing bacterial endocarditis as a sequel of bacteremia during endoscopy. In addition antibiotics are necessary for endoscopic procedures with a high risk of infection such as endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography in patients with stenosis of the bile or pancreatic duct and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy.
