Systemic Inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS) is common in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in early stage. Continuous Blood Purification (CBP), especially Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration(CVVH) is proved to have an important role in SAP patients to control SIRS. But the detail treatment for this is controversial. In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the different effects of three kinds of treatment protocols which is CVVH 6h,continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration(CVVHDF) 6h,CVVH 10h for first three days in SAP patients. Compare the vital sign, SIRS parameters, and others between these three groups. This study will try to find a better way for CBP in patients with SAP
Acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) represent the most common and earliest organ dysfunction in acute pancreatitis, presenting as dyspnea and intractable hypoxemia, with secondary bilateral pulmonary infiltrates on radiograph. And mechanical ventilation (MV) is the essential intervention to improve oxygenation. When to initiate MV remains uncertain. In this study, we aim to compare the effect of early MV and conventional MV, and we hypothesize that early MV may be a better treatment option.
Strategy of antibiotic therapy in SAP,De-escalate (cefoperazone+metronidazole) or Escalate (meropenem) therapy,which one is better.
Around 20 per cent of patients with acute pancreatitis develop pancreatic or peripancreatic necrosis with or without peripancreatic collection. Percutaneous catheter drainage successfully drains the liquefied component of pancreatic necrosis while the solid component still remains undrained. This infected solid component of pancreatic necrosis is probably responsible for failure of percutaneous catheter drainage which demands surgical debridement. Streptokinase is a protein secreted by several species of streptococci which can bind and activate human plasminogen. In the present study investigators plan to instill streptokinase locally in to the collections of patients with severe acute pancreatitis via pigtail catheter inorder to liquefy the solid necrotic component and analyze whether it hastens the drainage and thereby delays or obviates the need for necrosectomy.
To compare different goals of fluid resuscitation in early stage of acute pancreatitis
The study is a phase 2/3, multicenter, double-blind, parallel assignment study. It involves 100 adult recipients of an intra-hepatic pancreatic Islet Auto-Transplantation (IAT). The objective of this clinical trial is to assess whether reparixin leads to improved transplant outcome as measured by the proportion of insulin-independent patients following IAT. The safety of reparixin in the specific clinical setting will be also evaluated.
The purpose of this prospective randomised clinical trial is to compare beneficial and harmful effects of the use enteral nutrition versus a nil-by-mouth and intravenous fluid replacement principle of treatment in patients with moderate to severe acute pancreatitis (AP). The hypothesis: - enteral nutrition is no significantly better compared with the nil-by-mouth principle regarding mortality, incidence of local and systemic complications, length of hospital stay, and intensity of the inflammatory response in patients with moderate to severe AP - enteral nutrition has the same safety as nil-by-mouth principle in patients with moderate to severe AP
For 40 years, the post-ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) pancreatitis has been the most frequent adverse effect of endoscopic transpapillary interventions. We sought to determine the efficacy of thoracic epidural analgesia for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis. Between 2008 and 2013, a randomized study of the results of endoscopic treatment of 491 patients was conducted. The first group of patients (N=247) received thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) during ERCP procedures, the patients of the second group (N=244) received a narcotic analgesic. To detect statistically significant differences between research groups adjusted odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated.
1. The most common complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreaticography (ERCP) is pancreatitis. 2. Several studies showed that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can prevent the post ERCP pancreatitis, the investigators used diclofenac vs placebo. 3. The effect of diclofenac in prevention of that complication, was measured by the number of patients who developed pancreatitis, and compare it with the placebo. 4. The investigators collected 199 patients, 17 excluded, 182 completed the study, all of them underwent the intervention called "ERCP", and randomized to have either Diclofenac or Placebo before the procedure.
