[Valuation of effectiveness of optimized algorithm of diagnostics and treatment of acute pancreatitis]
Abstract:
The work is founded on the results of examination and treatment of 1242 patients with acute pancreatits in 1991-2007. There was compared results of diagnostics and treatment of 520 patients in 1991-1999 (group of comparison) before insertion of protocols of diagnostics and treatment of acute pancreatitis and after their insertion and optimization - 722 patients in 2000-2007 (main group). Compared groups are equitable in all categories. It's determined that that after insertion of standardized algorithm of diagnostics and treatment of acute pancreatitis in the work of surgical units of the 442nd Regional military clinical hospital of Leningrade military region, it was achieved a decrease of general lethality in conditions of this disease from 8.8% in group of comparison to 3.4% in main group (p<0.05). In conditions of sthenic acute pancreatitis after-operational lethality decreased from 39.6% to 23.1%, and general lethality - from 33.3% to 15% (p<0.001).

Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
