Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP), defined as acute inflammation of the pancreas, is one of the most common diseases of the gastrointestinal tract leading to hospital admission in the United States. It is important for clinicians to appreciate that AP is heterogenous, progressing differently among patients and is often unpredictable. While most patients experience symptoms lasting a few days, almost one-fifth of patients will go on to experience complications, including pancreatic necrosis and/or organ failure, at times requiring prolonged hospitalization, intensive care, and radiologic, surgical, and/or endoscopic intervention. Early management is essential to identify and treat patients with AP to prevent complications. Patients with biliary pancreatitis typically will require surgery to prevent recurrent disease and may need early endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography if the disease is complicated by cholangitis. Nutrition plays an important role in treating patients with AP. The safety of early refeeding and importance in preventing complications from AP are addressed. This guideline will provide an evidence-based practical approach to the management of patients with AP.

Abstract
Fluid resuscitation is an important way in the treatment of acute pancreatitis (AP). This meta-analysis aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of Lactate Ringer's solution (LR) and Normal Saline (NS) in the treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis. Searched in PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate), Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, China Wanfang, and China VIP database. All randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) were identified. Six studies with 431 patients were included. Compared with NS, LR can significantly reduce the incidence of SIRS at 24h, reduce the length of hospitalization, moderate-severe AP, ICU admission and local complications, especially pancreatic necrosis. It is safe and effective to choose LR for fluid resuscitation in AP, but due to the small number of included studies, multi-center and large-sample RCTs are still needed for further verification. PROSPERO registration number: CRD42022322788.

Abstract
Background Early fluid resuscitation is one of the main therapeutic strategies for acute pancreatitis (AP). This study investigated the effects of early aggressive and nonaggressive hydration on AP. Objectives The aim of this meta-analysis is to investigate the differences between aggressive and nonaggressive intravenous fluid resuscitation in AP. Design This study was based on publicly available data, all of which have been extracted from previous ethically approved studies. Data sources and methods Two authors systematically searched PubMed, Embase (via OVID), Web of Science, and Cochrane Library to find all published research before February 2023. In-hospital mortality were set as primary endpoints. Results This meta-analysis included seven randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and eight cohort studies with 4072 individuals in nonaggressive (n = 2419) and aggressive (n = 1653) hydration groups. The results showed that patients in the nonaggressive group had a lower mortality rate than those in the aggressive hydration group [relative risks (RR), 0.66; p = 0.02]. Subgroup analysis results showed that patients in the nonaggressive hydration group had lower mortality rates in RCTs (RR, 0.39; p = 0.001), studies conducted in Eastern countries (RR, 0.63; p = 0.002), and studies with severe pancreatitis (RR, 0.65; p = 0.02). In addition, the nonaggressive hydration group had lower rates of infection (RR, 0.62; p < 0.001), organ failure (RR, 0.65; p = 0.02), and shock (RR, 0.21; p = 0.02), as well as a shorter hospital stay (weighted mean difference, -1.63; p = 0.001) than the aggressive hydration group. Conclusions Early nonaggressive fluid resuscitation is associated with lower mortality, lower risk of organ failure and infection, and shorter hospital stays than aggressive fluid resuscitation.

Comparison of clinical outcomes between aggressive and non-aggressive intravenous hydration for acute pancreatitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Crit Care 2023; 27:122. [PMID: 36949459 PMCID: PMC10035244 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-023-04401-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Current practice guidelines for optimal infusion rates during early intravenous hydration in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) remain inconsistent. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare treatment outcomes between aggressive and non-aggressive intravenous hydration in severe and non-severe AP. METHODS This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We systematically searched PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on November 23, 2022, and hand-searched the reference lists of included RCTs, relevant review articles and clinical guidelines. We included RCTs that compared clinical outcomes from aggressive and non-aggressive intravenous hydration in AP. Meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model for participants with severe AP and non-severe AP. Our primary outcome was all-cause mortality, and several secondary outcomes included fluid-related complications, clinical improvement and APACHE II scores within 48 h. RESULTS We included a total of 9 RCTs with 953 participants. The meta-analysis indicated that, compared to non-aggressive intravenous hydration, aggressive intravenous hydration significantly increased mortality risk in severe AP (pooled RR: 2.45, 95% CI: 1.37, 4.40), while the result in non-severe AP was inconclusive (pooled RR: 2.26, 95% CI: 0.54, 9.44). However, aggressive intravenous hydration significantly increased fluid-related complication risk in both severe (pooled RR: 2.22, 95% CI 1.36, 3.63) and non-severe AP (pooled RR: 3.25, 95% CI: 1.53, 6.93). The meta-analysis indicated worse APACHE II scores (pooled mean difference: 3.31, 95% CI: 1.79, 4.84) in severe AP, and no increased likelihood of clinical improvement (pooled RR:1.20, 95% CI: 0.63, 2.29) in non-severe AP. Sensitivity analyses including only RCTs with goal-directed fluid therapy after initial fluid resuscitation therapy yielded consistent results. CONCLUSIONS Aggressive intravenous hydration increased the mortality risk in severe AP, and fluid-related complication risk in both severe and non-severe AP. More conservative intravenous fluid resuscitation protocols for AP are suggested.

Abstract
Background The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score was designed to assess the immune-nutritional status in patients. This study aimed to investigate the role of the CONUT score in the short-term prognosis of severe acute pancreatitis. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study. 488 patients with severe acute pancreatitis at the Department of Critical Care Medicine of the West China Hospital of Sichuan University (Chengdu, China) were enrolled in the study. Baseline data were collected from the West China Hospital of Sichuan University database. The primary outcome during follow-up was all-cause mortality. The secondary outcomes were 28 day mortality, renal insufficiency, length of stay (LOS) in the ICU, and length of stay (LOS) in the hospital. Patients were divided into two groups based on a median CONUT score of 7, and baseline differences between the two groups were eliminated by propensity matching. Univariate Cox regression analyses were performed to estimate the association between CONUT score and outcomes. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the survival rate of patients. Results CONUT score was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR]:2.093; 95%CI: 1.342-3.263; p < 0.001) and 28 day mortality (hazard ratio [HR]:1.813; 95%CI: 1.135-2.896; p < 0.013). CONUT score was not statistically significant in predicting the incidence of renal insufficiency. The high CONUT group had significantly higher all-cause mortality (p < 0.001), and 28 day mortality (p < 0.011) than the low CONUT group. Conclusion The CONUT score is an independent predictor of short-term prognosis in patients with severe acute pancreatitis, and timely nutritional support is required to reduce mortality in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Intravenous fluid therapy in patients with severe acute pancreatitis admitted to the intensive care unit: a narrative review. Ann Intensive Care 2022; 12:98. [PMID: 36251136 PMCID: PMC9576837 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-022-01072-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) often require ICU admission, especially when signs of multiorgan failure are present, a condition that defines AP as severe. This disease is characterized by a massive pancreatic release of pro-inflammatory cytokines that causes a systemic inflammatory response syndrome and a profound intravascular fluid loss. This leads to a mixed hypovolemic and distributive shock and ultimately to multiorgan failure. Aggressive fluid resuscitation is traditionally considered the mainstay treatment of AP. In fact, all available guidelines underline the importance of fluid therapy, particularly in the first 24–48 h after disease onset. However, there is currently no consensus neither about the type, nor about the optimal fluid rate, total volume, or goal of fluid administration. In general, a starting fluid rate of 5–10 ml/kg/h of Ringer’s lactate solution for the first 24 h has been recommended. Fluid administration should be aggressive in the first hours, and continued only for the appropriate time frame, being usually discontinued, or significantly reduced after the first 24–48 h after admission. Close clinical and hemodynamic monitoring along with the definition of clear resuscitation goals are fundamental. Generally accepted targets are urinary output, reversal of tachycardia and hypotension, and improvement of laboratory markers. However, the usefulness of different endpoints to guide fluid therapy is highly debated. The importance of close monitoring of fluid infusion and balance is acknowledged by most available guidelines to avoid the deleterious effect of fluid overload. Fluid therapy should be carefully tailored in patients with severe AP, as for other conditions frequently managed in the ICU requiring large fluid amounts, such as septic shock and burn injury. A combination of both noninvasive clinical and invasive hemodynamic parameters, and laboratory markers should guide clinicians in the early phase of severe AP to meet organ perfusion requirements with the proper administration of fluids while avoiding fluid overload. In this narrative review the most recent evidence about fluid therapy in severe AP is discussed and an operative algorithm for fluid administration based on an individualized approach is proposed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is the most serious subtype of acute pancreatitis, manifested as multiple-organ failure resulting in high morbidity and mortality. Based on the role of tripartite motif-containing protein 29 (TRIM29) in immune responses, we aimed to explore its effect on SAP. METHODS Peripheral blood monocyte cells from the SAP or non-SAP patients, as well as bone marrow-derived macrophages from wild-type, TRIM29 -/- , or stimulator of interferon genes (STING) -/- mice after injecting 50 mg/kg of cerulein to induce SAP, were isolated to analyze the role of TRIM29 and STING in the SAP. RESULTS Tripartite motif-containing protein 29 was significantly reduced in SAP patients. Compared with wild-type mice, TRIM29 deficiency mice displayed more severe symptom of acute pancreatitis after cerulein injection, which were lost in TRIM29 -/- STING -/- mice. Moreover, interferon and its related genes, as well as STING degradation, were decreased in TRIM29 -/- mice. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that TRIM29 negatively regulated the severity of SAP by degrading STING at its downstream, suggesting that TRIM29 and STING might serve as therapeutic targets for SAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The advantages of aggressive hydration compared to conservative hydration within 24 h for acute pancreatitis (AP) remain controversial in adult patients. A meta-analysis was undertaken to investigate whether aggressive strategies are more beneficial. METHODS We searched (on February 1, 2021) PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for eligible trials that assessed the two therapies and performed a meta-analysis. The primary endpoint was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes were adverse events (e.g., renal failure and pancreatic necrosis) within 24 h of treatment. RESULTS Five randomized controlled trials and 8 observational trials involving 3127 patients were identified. Patients with severe pancreatitis showed significant difference of in-hospital mortality (OR 1.75; 95% CI 1.32-2.33) in aggressive hydration group, which were less susceptible to study type and age. Patients with severe pancreatitis were likely to develop respiratory failure (OR 5.08; 95% CI 2.31-11.15), persistent SIRS (OR 2.83; 95% CI 1.58-5.04), renal failure (OR 2.58; 95% CI 1.90-3.50) with significant difference. A longer hospital stay was observed in patients with severe pancreatitis (WMD 7.61; 95% CI 5.51-9.71; P < 0.05) in the aggressive hydration group. Higher incidence of pancreatic necrosis (OR 2.34; 95% CI 1.60-3.42; P < 0.05) was major susceptible to observational studies, old patients and mild pancreatitis. CONCLUSIONS Compared to conservative hydration, aggressive hydration increases in-hospital mortality and the incidence of renal failure, pancreatic necrosis with relatively strong evidence. Further investigation should be designed with a definitive follow-up period and therapeutic goals to address reverse causation bias.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate fluid resuscitation is paramount in the management of acute pancreatitis (AP). The aim of this study is to assess benefits and harms of fluid therapy protocols in patients with AP. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase, Science Citation Index and clinical trial registries were searched for randomised clinical trials published before May 2020, assessing types of fluids, routes and rates of administration. RESULTS A total 15 trials (1073 participants) were included. Age ranged from 38 to 73 years; follow-up period ranged from 0.5 to 6 months. Ringer lactate (RL) showed a reduced number of severe adverse events (SAE) when compared to normal saline (NS) (OR 0.48; 95%CI 0.29-0.81, p = 0.006); additionally, NS showed reduced SAE (RR 0.38; 95%IC 0.27-0.54, p < 0.001) and organ failure (RR 0.30; 95%CI 0.21-0.44, p < 0.001) in comparison with hydroxyethyl starch (HES). High fluid rate fluid infusion showed increased mortality (OR 2.88; 95%CI 1.41-5.88, p = 0.004), increased number of SAE (RR 1.42; 95%CI 1.04-1.93, p = 0.030) and higher incidence of sepsis (RR 2.80; 95%CI 1.51-5.19, p = 0.001) compared to moderate fluid rate infusion. CONCLUSIONS In patients with AP, RL should be preferred over NS and HES should not be recommended. Based on low-certainty evidence, moderate-rate fluid infusion should be preferred over high-rate infusion.

Comparison of aggressive versus standard intravenous hydration for clinical improvement among patients with mild acute pancreatitis: A randomized controlled trial. Pancreatology 2021; 21:1224-1230. [PMID: 34215499 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2021.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Controversy remains regarding fluid management strategy, optimal volume and rate of intravenous fluid in mild acute pancreatitis. We performed a randomized controlled trial to compare clinical improvement and inflammatory markers between aggressive and standard fluid management. METHODS A single center prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary care hospital. We randomized patients with a diagnosis of mild acute pancreatitis using revised Atlanta classification in two groups, the aggressive (20 ml/kg bolus followed by 3 ml/kg/hr) and standard (10 ml/kg bolus followed by 1.5 ml/kg/hr) intravenous hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution. Primary outcome was clinical improvement at 24 and 36 hours. RESULTS The mean age of patients was 46 years and 34 patients (77%) were male. The average volumes of fluid during the first 24 hours in aggressive and standard groups was 4886 ml (71 ml/kg) and 3985 ml (53 ml/kg), respectively; p-value 0.002. Aggressive intravenous hydration did not significantly improve clinical outcome compared with standard intravenous hydration (45.45% vs. 31.82%, respectively; p-value 0.353). However, subgroup analysis between patients with obese and non-obese status, revealed aggressive intravenous hydration significantly improved clinical outcome within the first 24 hours in obese group. CONCLUSION Aggressive intravenous hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution did not improve clinical outcome in mild acute pancreatitis but showed statistically significant improvement only in patients with obese status. Future studies should include a larger sample size to confirm these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Early intravenous fluid (IVF) resuscitation is crucial in the management of acute pancreatitis; variation in IVF prescription practice had been demonstrated. This pilot study aims to assess whether the implementation of an Acute Pancreatitis Care Pathway (APCP) produces a change toward a more adequate IVF regimen in the first 24 hours. METHODS Patients with confirmed diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, from July 2015 to February 2016 (group 1) and from September 2017 to March 2018 (group 2), were considered. The APCP was developed between March 2016 and August 2017. Median IVF rate, volume, and type infused in the first 24 hours, were compared between groups. Nonparametric data were analyzed with the Mann-Whitney U test, differences in frequencies with the McNemar test; significance was set at P < 0.05. RESULTS Seventy-two patients were included, 36 in each group. In the first 24 hours, the median IVF rate was 177 mL/h vs 225 mL/h (P = 0.004); Ringer lactate infusion was 30% vs 77.8% (P = 0.0003). The median total IVF volume did not differ between groups. CONCLUSIONS The implementation of the APCP has the potential to lead to a successful change in early IVF resuscitation practice.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is the most frequent gastrointestinal cause for hospitalization and one of the leading causes of in-hospital deaths. Severe acute pancreatitis is often associated with multiorgan failure and especially with acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI can develop early or late in the course of the disease and is a strong determinator of outcome. The mortality in the case of dialysis-dependent AKI and acute pancreatitis raises exponentially in the affected patients. AP-induced AKI (AP-AKI) shows many similarities but also distinct differences to other causes of AKI occurring in the intensive care unit setting. The knowledge of the exact pathophysiology can help to adjust, control and improve therapeutic approaches to the disease. Unfortunately, there are only a few studies dealing with AP and AKI.In this review, we discuss recent data about pathogenesis, causes and management of AP-AKI in patients with severe acute pancreatitis and exploit in this regard the diagnostic and prognostic potential of respective newer serum and urine markers.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In the absence of proven effective pharmacologic therapy in acute pancreatitis, and given its simplicity, wide availability, and perceived safety, intravenous fluid resuscitation remains the cornerstone in the early treatment of acute pancreatitis. Herein, we will review the rationale of fluid therapy, critically appraise the published literature, and summarize recent studies. RECENT FINDINGS Several observational studies and small clinical trials have raised concern about the efficacy and safety of aggressive fluid resuscitation. Early aggressive fluid therapy among acute pancreatitis patients with predicted mild severity appears to have the highest benefit, whereas aggressive resuscitation in patients with predicted severe disease might be futile and deleterious. Lactated Ringer's solution is the preferred fluid type based on animal studies, clinical trials, and meta-analyses. There is a wide variation of fluid resuscitation approaches in current guideline recommendations, quality indicators, and worldwide practice patterns. SUMMARY There is lack of high-quality data that supports the use of early aggressive fluid resuscitation. Large, well designed, multicenter randomized controlled trials are needed to determine the optimal timing, fluid type, volume, rate, and duration of fluid resuscitation in acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Necrotizing pancreatitis is a common condition with high mortality; the acute care surgeon is frequently consulted for management recommendations. Furthermore, there has been substantial change in the timing, approach, and frequency of surgical intervention for this group of patients. METHODS In this article we summarize key clinical and research developments regarding necrotizing pancreatitis, including current recommendations for treatment of patients requiring intensive care and those with common complications. Articles from all years were considered to provide proper historical context, and most recent management recommendations are identified. RESULTS Epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment in the acute phase, and complications (both short-term and long-term) are discussed. Images of surgical interventions are included from our institutional experience. CONCLUSION Necrotizing pancreatitis management remains heavily based on clinical judgement, although technological advances and clinical trials have made decision making more straightforward.

Abstract
PURPOSE There have been many efforts to develop generalizable severity markers in children with acute pancreatitis (AP). Expert opinion panels have developed consensus guidelines on management but it is unclear if these are sufficient or valid. Our study aims to assess the effect of clinical and laboratory variables, in addition to treatment modality on hospital length of stay (LOS) as a proxy variable for severity in pediatric patients admitted with AP. METHODS We conducted a retrospective chart review of patients between ages of 0-18 years, who were admitted with AP at 2 institutions between 2013-2018, John R. Oishei Children's Hospital (Buffalo, NY, USA) and Medical University of South Carolina Children's Hospital (Charleston, SC, USA). We constructed three linear regression models to analyze the effect of clinical signs of organ dysfunction, laboratory markers and fluid intake on hospital LOS. RESULTS Ninety-two patients were included in the study. The mean age was 12 years (range, 7.6-17.4 years), 55% were females, and median LOS was 3 days. The most frequent cause of AP was idiopathic. Our study showed that elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN) on admission (p<0.005), tachycardia that lasted for ≥48 hours (p<0.001) and need for fluid resuscitation were associated with increase LOS. Total daily fluid intake above maintenance did not have a significant effect on the primary outcome (p=0.49). CONCLUSION Elevated serum BUN on admission, persistent tachycardia and need for fluid resuscitation were associated with increase LOS in pediatric AP. Daily total fluid intake above recommended maintenance did not reduce LOS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare a "nonaggressive" hydration versus an "aggressive" hydration using Hartmann's solution in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) with more than 24 hours from disease onset. METHODS We included 88 patients with AP with more than 24 hours from disease onset, and were randomized into 2 groups. Group I (n = 45) received a nonaggressive hydration (Hartmann's solution at 1.5 mL kg h for the first 24 hours and 30 mL kg during the next 24 hours), and group II (n = 43) received an aggressive hydration (bolus of Hartmann's solution 20 mL kg, followed by an infusion of 3 mL kg h for the first 24 hours and then 30 mL kg for the next 24 hours). RESULTS The mean volume of fluid administered was greater in group II (P < 0.001). We did not find differences when comparing both groups in reference to persistent systemic inflammatory response syndrome (P = 0.528), pancreatic necrosis (P = 0.710), respiratory complications (P = 0.999), acute kidney injury (P = 0.714), or length of hospital stay (P = 0.892). CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that the clinical evolution of patients with AP with more than 24 hours from disease onset is similar using an aggressive or nonaggressive hydration.

Abstract
Introduction: Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory condition of the pancreas, which runs a severe course in 20% of patients, wherein it is associated with high mortality. It is associated with several pleuro-pulmonary complications with variable severity that may occur either in isolation but are frequently present in combination. Clinicians need to be aware of these complications for early and appropriate management.Areas covered: We performed a systematic search of the PUBMED database (1970-2019) to identify relevant articles focusing on pleuro-pulmonary complications that may occur in patients with acute pancreatitis. We also retrieved articles describing the pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment approach of the various complications.Expert opinion: Acute pancreatitis is usually a self-limiting disease, but the development of organ failure during the course worsens the clinical outcome. Pulmonary complications usually occur early in the course of acute pancreatitis. Clinicians need to recognize the various pulmonary complications of acute pancreatitis, early during the disease, and manage them appropriately and aggressively to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis is a common disorder of the pancreas. It is the most frequent gastrointestinal cause for hospitalization and one of the leading causes of in-hospital deaths. Its severity ranges from mild self-limited disease to severe acute necrotizing pancreatitis characterized by systemic complications and multiorgan failure. Severe acute pancreatitis develops in about 20% of patients with acute pancreatitis and may be associated with multiorgan failure (respiratory, cardiovascular, and kidney). AKI is a frequent complication of severe acute pancreatitis and develops late in the course of the disease, usually after the failure of other organs. It carries a very poor prognosis, particularly if kidney replacement therapy is required, with mortality rates exceeding 75%. The exact pathophysiology of AKI in acute pancreatitis remains unclear but appears to result from initial volume depletion followed by complex vascular and humoral factors. Here, we provide an overview of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, causes, and management of AKI in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early identification of severe disease of acute pancreatitis (AP) is of critical importance to improve the prognosis. Fluid sequestration (FS), calculated from administrated fluid and fluid output, is a simple prognostic parameter. We examined its utility in the early phase of AP. METHODS We retrospectively investigated AP patients between January 2009 and April 2017. We compared FS in the first 24 h (FS24) with FS in the first 48 h (FS48) and administrated fluid volume within the first 24 h (FV24). Diagnostic yield for predicting intensive care unit (ICU) admission and persistent organ failure (POF) was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. We also evaluated risk factors for developing severe disease of AP. RESULTS A total of 400 AP patients were included in the analysis (median age 64 years; male 60%). According to the Japanese severity criteria, 158 patients (40%) were diagnosed as severe disease. The rates of mortality, ICU admission and POF were 0.8%, 4.5% and 7.3%, respectively. FS24 showed a similar predictive accuracy in comparison with FS48 and was superior to FV24 in predicting ICU admission and POF. FS24 ≥ 1.6 L, male sex, presence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and computed tomography severity index ≥ 3 on admission were independent risk factors for disease progression in AP in the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS FS24 was a simple and easily calculated parameter with high predictive accuracy for discriminating patients who needed intensive care. Patients with FS24 ≥ 1.6 L had an increased risk of developing severe disease.

Abstract
Aim The present study was aimed at comparing serum markers and APACHE-II score to predict persistent organ failure (POF) in early acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods In this retrospective study, data from 6024 patients with AP were included within 24 h of their admission. Serum levels of urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, glucose, and hematocrit and APACHE-II score were analyzed for patients with AP. We employed the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity analyses to evaluate the accuracy of the studied laboratory parameters and APACHE-II score. Results Our study included 2090 (35%) patients out of 6024 patients who were evaluated within 24 h of hospital admission. For predicting POF, serum creatinine level ≥ 1.8 mg/dl had the highest specificity (98%). The second classification tree has shown that when the serum creatinine level > 1.8 and APACHE − II ≥ 8 within 24 h were combined, the rates of predicted persistent organ failure achieved 66.7%. Conclusions In this large, hospital-based retrospective study, we demonstrated that an APACHE-II score ≥ 8 and a serum creatinine level ≥ 1.8 mg/dl within 24 h of admission can positively predict POF in AP and that serum creatinine levels < 1.8 mg/dl within 24 h of admission can be useful for negatively predicting POF in AP.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The association between early resuscitation volume and clinical outcomes remains controversial in acute pancreatitis. In the present study, we aimed to identify the association between resuscitation volume and the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) and other clinical outcome metrics. METHODS Patients admitted to our center with moderately severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP) and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) from January 2009 to December 2013 were reviewed retrospectively. Patients were stratified into two groups on the basis of the volume of fluid infused during the first 24 h. The primary clinical endpoint was incidence of AKI. Moreover, AKI lasting time, utilization of continuous renal replacement therapy and lasting time, creatinine increase, and other clinical metrics were also compared. The potential risk factors of new-onset AKI were also analyzed. RESULTS A total of 179 patients were included, and aggressive fluid resuscitation (≥ 4 l) was associated with increased incidence of AKI compared with nonaggressive group (53.12% vs. 25.64%, p = 0.008), longer AKI lasting time (p = 0.038), and increased creatinine increase (p < 0.001) during hospitalization. Moreover, utilization of continuous renal replacement therapy was more frequent in aggressive group (40.63% vs. 24.36%, p = 0.108), and the lasting time of continuous renal replacement therapy was also longer (p = 0.181), though both not statistically different. Moreover, in multivariate analysis, aggressive resuscitation [OR 4.36 (1.52-13.62); p = 0.001] and chloride exposure [OR 2.53 (1.26-5.21); p = 0.012] in the first 24 h were risk factors of new-onset AKI. CONCLUSION In patients with MSAP and SAP, aggressive fluid resuscitation was associated with increased incidence and longer duration of AKI. Moreover, aggressive resuscitation and chloride exposure in the first 24 h were risk factors of new-onset AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although fluid resuscitation is critical in acute pancreatitis, the optimal fluid volume is unknown. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between the volume of fluid administered and clinical outcomes in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). METHODS We conducted a multicenter retrospective study at 44 institutions in Japan. Inclusion criteria were age 18 years or older, and diagnosed with SAP from 2009 to 2013. Patients were stratified into 2 groups: administered fluid volume <6000 and ≥6000 mL in the first 24 hours. We evaluated the association between the 2 groups and clinical outcomes using multivariable logistic regression analysis. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of pancreatic infection and the need for surgical intervention. RESULTS We analyzed 1097 patients, and the mean fluid volume administered was 5618±3018 mL (mean±SD), with 708 and 389 patients stratified into the fluid <6000 mL and fluid ≥6000 mL groups, respectively. Overall in-hospital mortality was 12.3%. The fluid ≥6000 mL group had significantly higher mortality than the fluid <6000 mL group (univariable analysis, 15.9% vs. 10.3%; P<0.05). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, administration of ≥6000 mL of fluid within the first 24 hours was significantly associated with reduced mortality (odds ratio, 0.58; P<0.05). No significant association was found between the administered fluid volume and pancreatic infection, or between the volume administered and the need for surgical intervention. CONCLUSIONS In patients with SAP, administration of a large fluid volume within the first 24 hours is associated with decreased mortality.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common clinical emergency disorder, and its morbidity is increasing gradually. Severe AP (SAP) often occurs with a sudden onset and high mortality. Microcirculation disturbance and hemodynamic abnormality is one of the main pathophysiologic mechanisms of SAP. Early fluid resuscitation is the cornerstone of therapy. However, at present, the fluid type, the amount of fluid resuscitation, and the rehydration rate are still in dispute. Early goal-directed fluid therapy as an important individualized liquid resuscitation strategy has great significance to improve the prognosis of SAP. This article reviews the pathophysiological mechanisms of microcirculation disturbance, the related dispute of liquid resuscitation therapy, and the application of early goal-directed treatment strategy.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis in its severe form may lead to systemic inflammatory response syndrome and multisystem organ dysfunction. Acute lung injury is an important cause of mortality in the setting of severe acute pancreatitis. Besides lung involvement, acute and chronic pancreatitis may also lead to the involvement of other thoracic compartments, including mediastinum, pleura, and vascular structures. These manifestations are an important cause of morbidity and may pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. These manifestations have not been discussed in detail in the available literature. In this review, we discuss the thoracic complications of pancreatitis, including lung, pleural, mediastinal, and vascular manifestations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Aggressive fluid resuscitation is recommended for initial management of acute pancreatitis. However, there are few studies which focus on types of fluid therapy. METHODS We performed a randomized controlled trial in patients with acute pancreatitis. The patients were randomized into two groups. Each group received Normal Saline solution (NSS) or Lactated Ringer's solution (LRS) through a goal-directed fluid resuscitation protocol. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) at 24 and 48 h, mortality, presence of local complications and inflammatory markers were measured. RESULTS Forty-seven patients were included. Twenty-four patients (51%) received NSS and 23 patients received LRS. There was significant reduction in SIRS after 24 h among subjects who resuscitated with LRS compared with NSS (4.2% in NSS, 26.1% in LRS, P = 0.02). However, SIRS reduction at 48 h was not different between groups (33.4% in NSS, 26.1% in LRS, P = 0.88). Mortality was not different between NSS and LRS (4.2% in NSS, 0% in LRS, P = 1.00). CRP, ESR and procalcitonin increased at 24 h and 48 h after admission with no difference between the two groups. Local complications were 29.2% in NSS and 21.7% in LRS (P = 0.74). The median length of hospital stay was not significantly different in the two groups (5.5 days in NSS, 6 days in LRS, P = 0.915). CONCLUSIONS Lactated Ringer's solution was superior to NSS in SIRS reduction in acute pancreatitis only in the first 24 h. But SIRS at 48 h and mortality were not different between LRS and NSS.

Abstract
Background/Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of fluid balance with outcomes in patients hospitalized with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods This was a retrospective study of patients hospitalized between May 2008 and June 2016 with AP and a clinical order for strict recording of intake and output. Data collected included various types of fluid intake and output at 24 and 48 hours after admission. The primary outcome was length of stay (LOS). Analysis was performed using single-variable and multivariable negative binomial regression models. Results Of 1256 patients hospitalized for AP during the study period, only 71 patients (5.6%) had a clinical order for strict recording of intake and output. Increased urine output was associated with a decreased LOS at 24 and 48 hours in univariable analysis. An increasingly positive fluid balance (total intake minus urine output) at 24 hours was associated with a longer LOS in multivariable analysis. Conclusions Few patients hospitalized for AP had a documented order for strict monitoring of fluid intake and output, despite the importance of monitoring fluid balance in these patients. Our study suggests an association between urine output and fluid balance with LOS in AP.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease with no specific treatment. Mitochondrial injury followed by ATP depletion in both acinar and ductal cells is a recently discovered early event in its pathogenesis. Importantly, preclinical research has shown that intracellular ATP delivery restores the physiological function of the cells and protects from cell injury, suggesting that restoration of energy levels in the pancreas is therapeutically beneficial. Despite several high quality experimental observations in this area, no randomised trials have been conducted to date to address the requirements for energy intake in the early phase of AP. METHODS/DESIGN This is a randomised controlled two-arm double-blind multicentre trial. Patients with AP will be randomly assigned to groups A (30 kcal/kg/day energy administration starting within 24 hours of hospital admission) or B (low energy administration during the first 72 hours of hospital admission). Energy will be delivered by nasoenteric tube feeding with additional intravenous glucose supplementation or total parenteral nutrition if necessary. A combination of multiorgan failure for more than 48 hours and mortality is defined as the primary endpoint, whereas several secondary endpoints such as length of hospitalisation or pain will be determined to elucidate more detailed differences between the groups. The general feasibility, safety and quality checks required for high quality evidence will be adhered to. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study has been approved by the relevant organisation, the Scientific and Research Ethics Committee of the Hungarian Medical Research Council (55961-2/2016/EKU). This study will provide evidence as to whether early high energy nutritional support is beneficial in the clinical management of AP. The results of this trial will be published in an open access way and disseminated among medical doctors. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial has been registered at the ISRCTN (ISRTCN 63827758).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Early aggressive intravenous hydration is recommended for acute pancreatitis treatment although randomized trials have not documented benefit. We performed a randomized trial of aggressive vs. standard hydration in the initial management of mild acute pancreatitis. METHODS Sixty patients with acute pancreatitis without systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) or organ failure were randomized within 4 h of diagnosis to aggressive (20 ml/kg bolus followed by 3 ml/kg/h) vs. standard (10 ml/kg bolus followed by 1.5 mg/kg/h) hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution. Patients were assessed at 12-h intervals. At each interval, in both groups, if hematocrit, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), or creatinine was increased, a bolus of 20 ml/kg followed by 3 ml/kg/h was given; if labs were decreased and epigastric pain was decreased (measured on 0-10 visual analog scale), hydration was then given at 1.5 ml/kg/h and clear liquid diet was started. The primary endpoint, clinical improvement within 36 h, was defined as the combination of decreased hematocrit, BUN, and creatinine; improved pain; and tolerance of oral diet. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 45 years and only 14 (23%) had comorbidities. A higher proportion of patients treated with aggressive vs. standard hydration showed clinical improvement at 36 h: 70 vs. 42% (P=0.03). The rate of clinical improvement was greater with aggressive vs. standard hydration by Cox regression analysis: adjusted hazard ratio=2.32, 95% confidence interval 1.21-4.45. Persistent SIRS occurred less commonly with aggressive hydration (7.4 vs. 21.1%; adjusted odds ratio (OR)=0.12, 0.02-0.94) as did hemoconcentration (11.1 vs. 36.4%, adjusted OR=0.08, 0.01-0.49). No patients developed signs of volume overload. CONCLUSIONS Early aggressive intravenous hydration with Lactated Ringer's solution hastens clinical improvement in patients with mild acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
AIMS Early aggressive fluid resuscitation in acute pancreatitis is frequently recommended but its benefits remain unproven. The aim of this study was to determine the outcomes associated with early fluid volume administration in the emergency room (FVER) in patients with acute pancreatitis. METHODS A four-center retrospective cohort study of 1010 patients with acute pancreatitis was conducted. FVER was defined as any fluid administered from the time of arrival to the emergency room to 4 h after diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, and was divided into tertiles: nonaggressive (<500 ml), moderate (500 to 1000 ml), and aggressive (>1000 ml). RESULTS Two hundred sixty-nine (26.6%), 427 (42.3%), and 314 (31.1%) patients received nonaggressive, moderate, and aggressive FVER respectively. Compared with the nonaggressive fluid group, the moderate group was associated with lower rates of local complications in univariable analysis, and interventions, both in univariable and multivariable analysis (adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 0.37 (0.14-0.98)). The aggressive resuscitation group was associated with a significantly lower need for interventions, both in univariable and multivariable analysis (adjusted odds ratio 0.21 (0.05-0.84)). Increasing fluid administration categories were associated with decreasing hospital stay in univariable analysis. CONCLUSIONS Early moderate to aggressive FVER was associated with lower need for invasive interventions.

Abstract
Nowadays, fluid resuscitation of multiple trauma patients is still a challenging therapy. Existing therapies for volume replacement in severe haemorrhagic shock can lead to adverse reactions that may be fatal for the patient. Patients presenting with multiple trauma often develop hemorrhagic shock, which triggers a series of metabolic, physiological and cellular dysfunction. These disorders combined, lead to complications that significantly decrease survival rate in this subset of patients. Volume and electrolyte resuscitation is challenging due to many factors that overlap. Poor management can lead to post-resuscitation systemic inflammation causing multiple organ failure and ultimately death. In literature, there is no exact formula for this purpose, and opinions are divided. This paper presents a review of modern techniques and current studies regarding the management of fluid resuscitation in trauma patients with hemorrhagic shock. According to the literature and from clinical experience, all aspects regarding post-resuscitation period need to be considered. Also, for every case in particular, emergency therapy management needs to be rigorously respected considering all physiological, biochemical and biological parameters.

Abstract
Guidelines for the management of acute pancreatitis (AP) are based on the Western experience, which may be difficult to extrapolate in India due to socioeconomic constraints. Hence, modifications based on the available resources and referral patterns should be introduced so as to ensure appropriate care. We reviewed the current literature on the management of AP available in English on Medline and proposed guidelines locally applicable. Patients of AP presenting with systemic inflammatory response syndrome are at risk of moderate-severe pancreatitis and hence, should be referred to a tertiary center early. The vast majority of patients with AP have mild disease and can be managed at smaller centers. Early aggressive fluid resuscitation with controlled fluid expansion, early enteral nutrition, and culture-directed antibiotics improve outcomes in AP. Infected pancreatic necrosis should be managed in a tertiary care hospital within a multidisciplinary setup. The "step up" approach involving antibiotics, percutaneous drainage, and minimally invasive necrosectomy instituted sequentially based on clinical response has improved the outcomes in this subgroup of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES The aim of this focused review is to provide a valuable and updated source of information for clinical practice on fluid therapy (FT) and nutritional support in acute pancreatitis (AP). METHODS The review encompasses important new clinical information that has become available for understanding and offering these specific treatments since the 2013 publication of two guidelines, both the joint International Association of Pancreatology and American Pancreatic Association and the American College of Gastroenterology. The 2015 Revised Japanese Guideline is discussed selectively. To this end, the review is divided into 7 sections, including timing and cause of mortality; severity classification systems; predicting severity; response to treatment; nutritional support; fluid therapy and steps for further research. CONCLUSIONS In mild AP, begin oral feeding when nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain are improving. In (predicted) severe AP, feeding decisions should commence by 72 h, offering oral feeding if GI symptoms improve or enteral feeding if patients are symptomatic and/or intolerant to orals. All patients should be offered goal-directed FT during the first 6-12 h of presentation. Cautious FT is advised in those age >55 years or with preexisting organ failure or predictors of developing fluid sequestration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether recommendations for treatment of acute pancreatitis (AP) in adults impact the outcomes of pediatric AP. STUDY DESIGN Adult guidelines regarding early management of AP were implemented through an admission order set at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center at the beginning of the year 2014. Recommendations included administering high rates of intravenous fluid (IVF) within 24 hours of admission and enteral nutrition within 48 hours of admission. A retrospective chart review of AP admissions before and after the implementation of the recommendations was undertaken. Outcomes studied were: hospital length of stay, intensive care unit transfer rates, development of severe AP, pulmonary complications, and readmission rates post discharge from the hospital. RESULTS The study included 201 patients. Children who received feeds within the first 48 hours and received greater than maintenance IVF within 24 hours had a shorter length of stay, less intensive care unit admissions and severe AP rates compared with the patients who remained nil per os during the first 48 hours and received lower rates of IVF. CONCLUSION Our data support that early enteral nutrition and early aggressive IVF improve outcomes of pediatric AP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Japanese (JPN) guidelines for the management of acute pancreatitis were published in 2006. The severity assessment criteria for acute pancreatitis were later revised by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) in 2008, leading to their publication as the JPN Guidelines 2010. Following the 2012 revision of the Atlanta Classifications of Acute Pancreatitis, in which the classifications of regional complications of pancreatitis were revised, the development of a minimally invasive method for local complications of pancreatitis spread, and emerging evidence was gathered and revised into the JPN Guidelines. METHODS A comprehensive evaluation was carried out on the evidence for epidemiology, diagnosis, severity, treatment, post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis and clinical indicators, based on the concepts of the GRADE system (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation). With the graded recommendations, where the evidence was unclear, Meta-Analysis team for JPN Guidelines 2015 conducted an additional new meta-analysis, the results of which were included in the guidelines. RESULTS Thirty-nine questions were prepared in 17 subject areas, for which 43 recommendations were made. The 17 subject areas were: Diagnosis, Diagnostic imaging, Etiology, Severity assessment, Transfer indication, Fluid therapy, Nasogastric tube, Pain control, Antibiotics prophylaxis, Protease inhibitor, Nutritional support, Intensive care, management of Biliary Pancreatitis, management of Abdominal Compartment Syndrome, Interventions for the local complications, Post-ERCP pancreatitis and Clinical Indicator (Pancreatitis Bundles 2015). Meta-analysis was conducted in the following four subject areas based on randomized controlled trials: (1) prophylactic antibiotics use; (2) prophylactic pancreatic stent placement for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis; (3) prophylactic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis; and (4) peritoneal lavage. Using the results of the meta-analysis, recommendations were graded to create useful information. In addition, a mobile application was developed, which made it possible to diagnose, assess severity and check pancreatitis bundles. CONCLUSIONS The JPN Guidelines 2015 were prepared using the most up-to-date methods, and including the latest recommended medical treatments, and we are confident that this will make them easy for many clinicians to use, and will provide a useful tool in the decision-making process for the treatment of patients, and optimal medical support. The free mobile application and calculator for the JPN Guidelines 2015 is available via http://www.jshbps.jp/en/guideline/jpn-guideline2015.html.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis remains a clinical challenge, despite an exponential increase in our knowledge of its complex pathophysiological changes. Early fluid therapy is the cornerstone of treatment and is universally recommended; however, there is a lack of consensus regarding the type, rate, amount and end points of fluid replacement. Further confusion is added with the newer studies reporting better results with controlled fluid therapy. This review focuses on the pathophysiology of fluid depletion in acute pancreatitis, as well as the rationale for fluid replacement, the type, optimal amount, rate of infusion and monitoring of such patients. The basic goal of fluid epletion should be to prevent or minimize the systemic response to inflammatory markers. For this review, various studies and reviews were critically evaluated, along with authors’ recommendations, for predicted severe or severe pancreatitis based on the available evidence.

Abstract
Surgical necrosectomy, but is still associated with a high morbidity. Indications of the endoscopic route, a new less invasive technique are not defined yet. To compare characteristics and clinical outcome of patients treated by the two techniques, a bi-centric retrospective comparison of 21 patients treated by surgical necrosectomy in one center (group S) with 11 patients treated in another center by endoscopic transgastric necrosectomy (group E) was performed. Clinical severity scores were significantly higher in group S although CT severity score did not differ between groups. Acute postoperative complications including pancreatic fistula occurred more frequently in group S (86% vs. 27%, P=0.002). ICU and hospital length of stay were higher in group S (84 vs. 4 days; P=0.008 and 58 vs. 15 days; P=0.005 respectively). Long-term complication did not differ between groups. Compared to surgery, endoscopic necrosectomy exhibited lower rate of complications and reduced hospital length of stays. Endoscopic transgastric necrosectomy appears as a safe and effective procedure and has to be included in the therapeutic algorithm of infected pancreatic necrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early fluid resuscitation is recommended for the therapy of acute pancreatitis in order to prevent complications. There are, however, no convincing data supporting this approach. METHODS We reviewed 391 consecutive cases of confirmed acute pancreatitis. Admitting physicians had been advised to administer an aggressive fluid resuscitation in the early phase of disease, if possible. We tested whether disease severity according to the revised Atlanta Classification, local complications, and maximum C-reactive protein levels were predictable by the initial volume therapy in logistic and linear regression models, respectively. We also determined which parameters on admission encouraged a more aggressive fluid resuscitation. RESULTS The recorded fluid administered within the first 24 h was 5300 [3760; 7100] ml (median [1st; 3rd quartile]). More aggressive volume therapy was associated with disease severity and a higher rate of local complications. There was a linear relationship between administered volume and the maximum C-reactive protein. The amount of administered fluid was significantly attributed to age, hematocrit, and white blood cell count on admission. When adjusted for these parameters the impact of administered volume on outcome was still present but attenuated. CONCLUSIONS We found detrimental effects of fluid therapy on major outcome parameters throughout the whole range of administered volume. More volume was administered in younger patients and in patients with evidence of hemoconcentration and inflammation. The adverse effects of volume therapy persisted after elimination of these parameters. Caution should therefore be advised with regards to volume therapy in patients with acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common medical condition with extensive morbidity and mortality. Approximately 210,000 Americans are hospitalized each year; and 5% of patients with AP will die. It is also an expensive condition, costing 2.6 billion dollars (United States) in 2009 alone. Moreover, the incidence is increasing - the National Hospital Discharge Survey showed hospitalizations increased from 78 per 100,000 in 2007 to 90 per 100,000 just three years later in 2010. There is no proven pharmacologic entity to treat the inflammatory response associated with acute pancreatitis; supportive care with IV fluids, bowel rest and pain control are the mainstays of therapy. Recently, new developments to help increase survival and minimize morbidity with several key interventions have been investigated. This summary highlights new studies and meta-analyses to provide current opinion on treatment of this morbid condition.

Abstract
The association of acute pancreatitis (AP) with intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) has only recently been recognized. The detrimental effects of raised intra-abdominal pressure in cardiovascular, pulmonary and renal systems have been well established. Although IAH was associated with a higher APACHE II score and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in severe acute pancreatitis, a causal relationship between ACS and MODS in SAP is yet to be established. It is therefore debatable whether IAH is a phenomenon causative of organ failure or an epiphenomenon seen in conjunction with other organ dysfunction. This review systemically examines the pathophysiological basis and clinical relevance of ACS in AP and summarizes all the available evidence in its management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid therapy (FT) is a critical intervention in managing acute pancreatitis (AP). There is a paucity of evidence to guide FT and virtually no data on current prescribing practice. This survey aims to characterize current practice and opinion with regard to FT in AP throughout New Zealand. METHODS Information was collected on fluid selection, administration, and goal-directed FT. The survey was distributed online and in print to all doctors employed in General Surgery Departments in New Zealand on 1 May 2012. Monthly email reminders were sent for 6 months. RESULTS The overall response rate was 47 % (n = 190/408). Crystalloids were the preferred initial fluid for all categories of severity; however, colloid use increased with severity (p < 0.001). Fluid volume also increased with severity (p = 0.001), with 74 % of respondents prescribing >4 L for AP with organ failure (OF). Clinicians treating 26-50 patients per year with AP were less likely to prescribe colloid for AP with OF (8 vs 43 %) (p = 0.001). Rate of fluid administration in AP with OF varied according to physicians' seniority (p = 0.004); consultants prescribed >4 L more than other groups (83 vs 68 %). Only 17 % of respondents reported the use of guidelines. CONCLUSIONS This survey reveals significant variation in prescription of FT for AP, and aggressive FT is commonly prescribed for AP with OF. There is little adherence to published guidelines or best available evidence.

American College of Gastroenterology guideline: management of acute pancreatitis. Am J Gastroenterol 2013; 108:1400-15; 1416.

Abstract
This guideline presents recommendations for the management of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). During the past decade, there have been new understandings and developments in the diagnosis, etiology, and early and late management of the disease. As the diagnosis of AP is most often established by clinical symptoms and laboratory testing, contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pancreas should be reserved for patients in whom the diagnosis is unclear or who fail to improve clinically. Hemodynamic status should be assessed immediately upon presentation and resuscitative measures begun as needed. Patients with organ failure and/or the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) should be admitted to an intensive care unit or intermediary care setting whenever possible. Aggressive hydration should be provided to all patients, unless cardiovascular and/or renal comorbidites preclude it. Early aggressive intravenous hydration is most beneficial within the first 12-24 h, and may have little benefit beyond. Patients with AP and concurrent acute cholangitis should undergo endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) within 24 h of admission. Pancreatic duct stents and/or postprocedure rectal nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) suppositories should be utilized to lower the risk of severe post-ERCP pancreatitis in high-risk patients. Routine use of prophylactic antibiotics in patients with severe AP and/or sterile necrosis is not recommended. In patients with infected necrosis, antibiotics known to penetrate pancreatic necrosis may be useful in delaying intervention, thus decreasing morbidity and mortality. In mild AP, oral feedings can be started immediately if there is no nausea and vomiting. In severe AP, enteral nutrition is recommended to prevent infectious complications, whereas parenteral nutrition should be avoided. Asymptomatic pancreatic and/or extrapancreatic necrosis and/or pseudocysts do not warrant intervention regardless of size, location, and/or extension. In stable patients with infected necrosis, surgical, radiologic, and/or endoscopic drainage should be delayed, preferably for 4 weeks, to allow the development of a wall around the necrosis.

Abstract
Severe acute pancreatitis (AP) is associated with an increased need for fluids due to fluid sequestration and, in the most severe cases, with decreased peripheral vascular tone. For several decades, clinical practice guidelines have recommended aggressive fluid therapy to improve the prognosis of AP. This recommendation is based on theoretical models, animal studies, and retrospective studies in humans. Recent studies suggest that aggressive fluid administration in all patients with AP could have a neutral or harmful effect. Fluid therapy based on Ringer's lactate could improve the course of the disease, although further studies are needed to confirm this possibility. Most patients with AP do not require invasive monitoring of hemodynamic parameters to guide fluid therapy administration. Moreover, the ability of these parameters to improve prognosis has not been demonstrated.

Abstract
AIM: To compare effects of different resuscitation fluid on microcirculation, inflammation, intestinal barrier and clinical results in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).
METHODS: One hundred and twenty patients with SAP were enrolled at the Pancreatic Disease Institute between January 2007 and March 2010. The patients were randomly treated with normal saline (NS group), combination of normal saline and hydroxyethyl starch (HES) (SH group), combination of normal saline, hydroxyethyl starch and glutamine (SHG group) in resuscitation. The ratio of normal saline to HES in the SH and SHG groups was 3:1. The glutamine (20% glutamine dipeptide, 100 mL/d) was supplemented into the resuscitation liquid in the SHG group. Complications and outcomes including respiratory and abdominal infection, sepsis, abdominal hemorrhage, intra-abdominal hypertension, abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), renal failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), operation intervention, length of intensive care unit stay, length of hospital stay, and mortality at 60 d were compared. Moreover, blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), gastric intramucosal pH value (pHi), intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), inflammation cytokines, urine lactulose/mannitol (L/M) ratio, and serum endotoxin were investigated to evaluate the inflammatory reaction and gut barrier.
RESULTS: Compared to the NS group, patients in the SH and SHG groups accessed the endpoint more quickly (3.9 ± 0.23 d and 4.1 ± 0.21 d vs 5.8 ± 0.25 d, P < 0.05) with less fluid volume (67.26 ± 28.53 mL/kg/d, 61.79 ± 27.61 mL/kg per day vs 85.23 ± 21.27 mL/kg per day, P < 0.05). Compared to the NS group, incidence of renal dysfunction, ARDS, MODS and ACS in the SH and SHG groups was obviously lower. Furthermore, incidence of respiratory and abdominal infection was significantly decreased in the SH and SHG groups, while no significant difference in sepsis was seen. Moreover, less operation time was needed in the SH and SHG group than the NS group, but the difference was not significant. The mortality did not differ significantly among these groups. Blood SpO2 and gastric mucosal pHi in the SH and SHG groups increased more quickly than in the NS group, while IAP was significantly decreased in the SH and SHG group. Moreover, the serum tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-8 and C-reactive protein levels in the SH and SHG groups were obviously lower than in the NS group at each time point. Furthermore, urine L/M ratio and serum endotoxin were significantly lower in the SH group and further decreased in the SHG group.
CONCLUSION: Results indicated that combination of normal saline, HES and glutamine are more efficient in resuscitation of SAP by relieving inflammation and sustaining the intestinal barrier.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Significant changes in the management of acute pancreatitis have taken place since the 2004 Pamplona Consensus Conference. The objective of this conference has been the revision and updating of the Conference recommendations, in order to unify the integral management of potentially severe acute pancreatitis in an ICU. PARTICIPANTS Spanish and international intensive medicine physicians, radiologists, surgeons, gastroenterologists, emergency care physicians and other physicians involved in the treatment of acute pancreatitis. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE AND GRADES OF RECOMMENDATION: The GRADE method has been used for drawing them up. DRAWING UP THE RECOMMENDATIONS: The selection of the committee members was performed by means of a public announcement. The bibliography has been revised from 2004 to the present day and 16 blocks of questions on acute pancreatitis in a ICU have been drawn up. Firstly, all the questions according to groups have been drawn up in order to prepare one document. This document has been debated and agreed upon by computer at the SEMICYUC Congress and lastly at the Consensus Conference which was held with the sole objective of drawing up these recommendations. CONCLUSIONS Eighty two recommendations for acute pancreatitis management in an ICU have been presented. Of these 84 recommendations, we would emphasize the new determinants-based classification of acute pancreatitis severity, new surgical techniques and nutritional recommendations. Note. This summary only lists the 84 recommendations of the 16 questions blocks except blocks greater relevance and impact of its novelty or because they modify the current management.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to evaluate the significance of serum creatinine level (SCL) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) measured in an early phase of acute pancreatitis (AP) for prediction of pancreatic necrosis (PNec) and mortality. METHODS One hundred and forty-seven patients with AP were retrospectively reviewed in the study. Serum creatinine level and estimated glomerular filtration rate (calculated using the abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation) on admission and 48 h thereafter were analyzed for each patient. These parameters were compared with contrast-enhanced computed tomography images performed within 96 h from admission (n = 103). Usefulness of SCL and eGFR for prediction of PNec and fatal outcome of AP was evaluated using a receiver operator characteristic curve analysis and comparison of average parameter values. RESULTS We confirmed pancreatic necrosis in 41 (39.8%) of 103 patients using computed tomography examination. Both creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate measured on admission (p < 0.001, p < 0.001 respectively) and 48 h later (p = 0.001, p < 0.001 respectively) were significantly associated with the presence of pancreatic necrosis. Moreover, serum creatinine level and eGFR measured on the 1st day proved to be a good predictor of fatal outcome. Both, mortality and presence of pancreatic necrosis were significantly higher in the group with elevated serum creatinine level and low eGFR values. CONCLUSIONS SCL and eGFR on admission are useful indicators of PNec and mortality.
