Abstract
CONCLUSION AND SUMMARY: • From this study, Alcohol (49%) was found to be the most common etiological factor for acute pancreatitis. • Males were most commonly affected than female with a ratio of 10 : 1. • The most common age groups of patients affected were in 4th decade of life. • The overall mortality in patients with severe acute pancreatitis was 4%. • The BISAP score predicted the mortality significantly over the APACHE II score in patients with severe acute pancreatitis. • The BISAP score predicted the disease severity significantly over the APACHE II score in patients with acute pancreatitis. From this study, we conclude that the BISAP score could be a simple and accurate clinical scoring system for the evaluation of disease severity in acute pancreatitis.
