UK guidelines for the management of acute pancreatitis
Open accessAbstract
DiagnosisN *The correct diagnosis of acute pancreatitis should be made in all patients within 48 hours of admission (recommendation grade C).N The aetiology of acute pancreatitis should be determined in at least 80% of cases and no more than 20% should be classified as idiopathic (recommendation grade B).N Although amylase is widely available and provides acceptable accuracy of diagnosis, where lipase estimation is available it is preferred for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (recommendation grade A).N Where doubt exists, imaging may be used: ultrasonography is often unhelpful and pancreatic imaging by contrast enhanced computed tomography provides good evidence for the presence or absence of pancreatitis (recommendation grade C). AssessmentN The definitions of severity, as proposed in the Atlanta criteria, should be used.However, organ failure present within the first week, which resolves within 48 hours, should not be considered an indicator of a severe attack of acute pancreatitis (recommendation grade B).N Available prognostic features which predict complications in acute pancreatitis are clinical impression of severity, obesity, or APACHE II.8 in the first 24 hours of admission, and C reactive protein .150mg/l, Glasgow score 3 or more, or persisting organ failure after 48 hours in hospital (recommendation grade B).N Patients with persisting organ failure, signs of sepsis, or deterioration in clinical status 6-10 days after admission will require computed tomography (recommendation grade B). Prevention of complicationsN The evidence to enable a recommendation about antibiotic prophylaxis against infection of pancreatic necrosis is conflicting and difficult to interpret.Some trials show benefit, others do not.At present there is no consensus on this issue.N If antibiotic prophylaxis is used, it should be given for a maximum of 14 days (recommen-dation grade B).Further studies are needed (recommendation grade C).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
