NCT07583342
The goal of this study is to learn if Relizorb, a fat-digesting enzyme, can improve tolerance of tube feeds in adult patients with moderate to severe pancreatitis. The main question it aims to answer is: Does Relizorb allow more nutrition to be delivered to participants than they received without it? Participants will be observed with standard, universal monitoring after adding Relizorb to their nutrition regimen.
NCT07450898
Acute pancreatitis is a rare complication after percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy in treatment of thrombotic disorders. The objectives of this study include: (1) Determine the incidence and severity of acute pancreatitis after percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy; (2) Identify patient/procedural risk factors; (3) Evaluate clinical outcomes; (4) Develop a diagnosis and treatment pathway.
NCT07439757
This multicenter clinical trial evaluates an artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to assist in the diagnosis and management of pancreatic diseases. Using contrast-enhanced CT scans, the study compares the AI's recommendations against the decisions of experienced clinicians to verify the system's accuracy and safety in a real-world setting. Patients are categorized into three management groups: Intervention (surgery/treatment), Intensive Surveillance (close monitoring), or Routine Surveillance (standard follow-up). The primary goal is to determine if the AI system can reliably classify patients, reduce the risk of missing malignant lesions, and prevent unnecessary surgeries, thereby improving clinical decision-making for pancreatic conditions.
NCT07395778
The goal of this randomized control trial is to assess whether nasojejunal feed is better than oral nutrition in patients who are undergoing endoscopic cystogastrostomy of walled off necrosis following acute pancreatitis. It will also try to answer, the incidence of infections and feed tolerance. The main question it tries to answer is 1. whether nasojejunl feed is better than oral feed in patients undergoing endoscopic cystogastrostomy in walled off necrosis following acute pancreatitis 2. How much infections they develop, whether they are able to tolerate the feed, weight gain and reintervention rates in each group
NCT06828965
Acute pancreatitis is a disease that usually has a mild disease course. However, around 20-30% of the patients develop severe complications. Persistent organ failure, with or without the presence of local complications such as (peri-) pancreatic necrosis and secondary infections, is the main determinant for mortality, and these patients are classified as having severe acute pancreatitis according to the revised Atlanta classification . The most widely used classification systems for determining the severity and course of AP are the revised Atlanta classification and the Bedside Index of Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP). According to the revised Atlanta classification, the severity of AP is graded as mild acute pancreatitis (MAP), moderately severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP), or severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) . In addition to the revised Atlanta classification and BISAP, several other prognostic scoring systems and classifications have been developed to predict the severity of AP. Ranson's criteria, the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score, the Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score, and the Balthazar index are other commonly used prognostic systems . Most of these scoring systems include multiple determinants or parameters that must be noted 24 to 48 h after hospitalization, and the estimation of the severity of AP is delayed until 48 h after hospitalization. Thus, these scoring systems are of limited use at admission. On the other hand, in view of the complexity of prognostic scoring systems, several studies have been conducted on the role of simple laboratory parameters and indices in predicting the disease severity of AP and mortality . The most widely studied laboratory parameters and indices are the white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and procalcitonin. These laboratory parameters have also been used as part of several prognostic scoring systems. Nevertheless, none of the laboratory parameters or prognostic scoring systems can predict the severity of AP or MOF with sufficient accuracy . Moreover, it is not easy to predict the course and severity of acute pancreatitis at the first assessment of hospital admission. At the time of admission, most laboratory parameters are insufficient to differentiate mild disease from severe disease, and changes in laboratory parameters over time, including inflammatory markers and parameters related to organ/system dysfunction, provide important clues regarding the course of the disease . On the other hand, there is a need for simple, reliable, widely used parameters at admission for predicting the course of the disease. Sahin (2024) found a new index named the neutrophil-creatinine index (NCI), which was established based on the levels of neutrophil count and creatinine, to predict the severity of AP at admission . It's known that neutrophil infiltration and activation is one of the early events in acute pancreatitis and results in higher neutrophil count values at admission. Similarly, higher creatinine values at admission indicate renal hypoperfusion, which is associated with third-space leakage resulting from a systemic inflammatory state. It was assumed that the NCI may serve as an efficient test to represent the combination of inflammatory response and organ dysfunction .
