Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Endoscopic ultrasound guided insertion of a fully covered lumen apposing stent (Hot SPAXUS) to drain symptomatic walled off necrosis. This intervention takes approximately 15 minutes. The administeration of the intervention will be performed by an expert interventional gastroenterologist in an endoscopy room or theatre room. The patient will be followed up at a minimum to assess clinical progress at 4 weeks and 3 months.

Statistical methods / analysis
This study will begin after obtaining ethics approval at each site. Enrolment will be over a 6-12 month period, until 20 patients have been prospectively enrolled. The study will be completed for each patient at 3-months post EUS-guided WON drainage.

Primary outcomes (as aforementioned) will be reported descriptively using absolute numbers and percentages.
Logistic regression will be used to identify clinical factors that are associated with the primary outcome measures.

Both the categorical & continuous variables (secondary outcomes - as aforementioned) will be expressed as absolute numbers, percentages, means and medians.

STATA is the statistics program that will be used to analyse the results.
