RESUMEN
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is invasive therapeutic procedure demanding specific individual approach for learning and mastering. It is associated with greater morbidity and mortality than any other procedure in gastroenterology. The risk for complications and harm for patient inevitably require strict guidelines to be followed regarding training, certification and proficiency. In an attempt to reduce the risk of complications, various endoscopic societies worldwide have established so called "Quality measures" which proved to be the back bone for safety and quality in ERCP. Recently developed ERCP quality network allowing data comparison between endoscopist is the key of reducing complications and creating a state of the art teaching program for beginner endoscopist. Further research is required regarding quality measures improvement and information exchange in the global ERCP quality network.
