Filter by:With the development of endoscopic technology, ERCP has been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatobiliary diseases, and has become the first treatment for most of the biliary and pancreatic diseases. Postoperative ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is the most common and serious complication after ERCP. The purpose of this study was to explore methods for preventing postoperative pancreatitis. 1. Participants: Patients with high-risk factors associated with PEP were included in the no-obvious patients who underwent therapeutic ERCP in our hospital from June 2018 to December 2019. 2. Research methods: Patients were randomly divided into indometacin suppositories, indomethacin suppositories and pancreatic stents. 3. Statistical methods: SPSS 13.0 statistical software was used. The measurement data was expressed as x± s, and t-test or non-parametric test was used. Chi-square test was used for count data.
To demonstrate safety and effectiveness of lumen-apposing metal stents for resolution of walled off pancreatic necrosis (WONs) in patients with WONs with solid component >30%.
Walled of necrosis (WON) is severe local complication of acute necrotizing pancreatitis. Disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome(DPDS) is commonly seen (50-60%) after necrotizing pancreatitis and has long term implication like recurrent pancreatic fluid collections (PFC)] requiring re-intervention. Incidence of recurrent PFC is more common in patients with DPDS (17-50%) compared to others. Studies has shown permanent in-dwelling transmural stent reduces recurrence of PFC (1.7% vs 17.4%, p<0.001). Nowadays,WON is effectively managed with endoscopic step up approach (96%). Several studies showed dedicated self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) are effective compared to the plastic stents in management of WON with decreased need of re-intervention. However, SEMS cannot be kept for longer duration because of associated adverse events. So, experts recommend to remove SEMS within 4-6 weeks of placement. Considering this background, study is planned with aim to see the effect of transmural plastic stenting on recurrence of PFC after SEMS removal in walled off necrosis with DPDS.
Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory process which causes a local and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). Although the majority of patients have a mild disease course, around 20% will develop moderate or severe pancreatitis, with necrosis of the (peri) pancreatic tissue and/or multiple-organ failure. Previous studies have correlated colonic involvement as a prognostic marker in acute pancreatitis. It is well known that translocation of the colonic flora may significantly influence the clinical course of patients with acute pancreatitis. The correlation between collection(s) around colon in CT finding and clinical outcomes has not been studied in necrotizing pancreatitis. In current study, the investigators will do a prospective observational study correlating collection(s) around the colon and clinical course of patients in acute necrotizing pancreatitis.
Severe acute pancreatitis is a common reason for intensive care unit (ICU) admission and is associated with prolonged hospital stays and high morbidity and mortality rates. The Atlanta classification differentiates mild, moderate, and severe acute pancreatitis, and each of these categories correlates with morbidity and mortality. Mortality remains high, between 10% and 39%, in severe and moderately severe acute pancreatitis. After the first week, about 30% of patients with necrotizing pancreatitis develop infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN). IPN is a risk factor for mortality.The treatment of IPN combines antibiotics with interventions to remove the infected intra-abdominal material, preferably using minimally invasive techniques such as percutaneous and endoscopic drainage, which have been proven beneficial. In several studies biological markers such as procalcitonin and interleukin 8 were effective in predicting IPN. However, few clinical risk factors for IPN have been reported. Identifying risk factors may help to improve standardized strategies for early diagnosis and treatment, and then patients outcome. Our primary objective was to identify risk factors for IPN in patients admitted to the ICU for acute pancreatitis. Our secondary objective was to describe the management and outcomes of IPN
Acute necrotizing pancreatitis is a frequent and potentially lethal disease, especially in case of infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN). IPN usually occurs after the first week of evolution. The step up approach is now widely recommended for the management of IPN. In fact, in case of suspicion of IPN, a drainage percutaneous or transgastric is recommended at first, supported by probabilist antibiotherapy. 1/3 of patients won't require any other interventions. For 2/3 of patients, an additional necrosectomy is necessary. Necrosectomy was formally realized by open laparotomy. Since de last decade, mini-invasive technics have emerged: transgastric necrosectomy, video-assist retroperitoneal debridement. laparoscopy and permitted a decreased of morbidity and mortality. Recently, Hollemans et al. developed a nomogram based on 4 variables (sex, multi-organ failure, % of necrosis and collections heterogeneity) which are negative predictors for success of catheter drainage in IPN with an receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve at 0.76. The aim of this study is to validate on a large retrospective cohort Hollemans nomogram in predicting catheter drainage success. Secondary aims are to evaluate possible others predictors for success of catheter drainage in IPN and to evaluate the impact of antibiotherapy on microbiological results and on the need for an additional necrosectomy regarding its type and duration, as well as the emergence of multiresistance organism.
The research design is a randomized prospective clinical study comparing the incidence of Walled Off Necrosis (WON) in patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis.
Randomized multicenter study comparing plastic stents and self-expanding metallic stents in the eus-guided transmural drainage of walled-off pancreatic necrosis. Spanish centers partners of the spanish society of digestive endoscopy.
Try to collect about 350 cases of acute necrotizing pancreatitis at the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University and Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command. Then the investigators studied the incidence and the risk factors of ARDS in patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis.
Infected pancreatic necrosis and its related septic complications are the major cause of death in patients with acute pancreatitis, therefore prevention of pancreatic infection is of great clinical value in the treatment of AP. Immunosuppression and disorders characterized by decreased HLA-DR expression and unbalanced CD3/CD4+/CD8+ T cells of PBMC are thought to be associated with the development of pancreatic infection. Thymosin alpha 1 has been shown to have immunomodulatory properties and its effects in preventing pancreatic infection was not well studied. To evaluate the effects of TA1 use in the early phase on preventing pancreatic infection, immunomodulation and clinical outcomes in patients with AP,we aimed to design this study.
