Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients having endoscopic ultrasound fine needle aspiration are at risk of iatrogenic infections due to the procedure. Currently there are no firm guidelines as to whether antibiotics are required or if they are, what antibiotics should be used. There have been no studies focusing on Tazocin (tazobactam, piperacillin) at the time of endoscopic ultrasound fine needle aspiration (EUS FNA). We will include all cases of EUS FNA requiring antibiotic prophylaxis and follow up patients following discharge home to determine whether they develop acute or chronic infections.

Observational study will be conducted determining the rates of sepsis following EUS FNA (single periprocedural dose IV tazocin or ciprofloxacin) on telephone follow up 1 year post-procedure
