“…Harewood et al [31] described a learning curve of 20 successful drainage procedures for chronic pancreatic pseudocysts before dramatic improvements in pancreatic fluid collection resolution rates occurred. Selection bias also may have occurred because patients with complicated abscesses that presented with signs of sepsis or peritonitis underwent emergent surgical drainage rather than endoscopic therapy.…”

“…In one study [76], Harewood et al described their experience in 175 patients requiring drainage of pancreatic fluid collections, and demonstrated significant improvement in success rates between the first 20 procedures and the subsequent cases (45% vs. 93%; p = 0.0002) and a reduction in days to resolution (50 days, initial 20 procedures vs. 33.5 days, subsequent procedures; p = 0.05. Such data both characterize a learning curve and help set the bar for success rates possible by experts in this particular procedure.…”
