Background: Patient management and necessary supportive treatments, an accurate prognosis of the illness is essential for patients with acute pancreatitis. Thus far, no diagnostic technique has demonstrated superiority over the other in terms of clinical judgment. The aim of this study was to examine the predictive accuracy of the Bedside Index for Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP) score in contrast to Ranson's criteria.
Methods: Our research is a retrospective cross-sectional analysis. Inclusion criteria encompassed patients admitted to the emergency department with acute pancreatitis. Exclusion criteria comprised individuals with liver, heart, or renal failure upon admission or during hospitalization. Each patient's demographic data, including age, gender, education level, and consciousness level, were considered. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 16 software with a significance level set at p <0.05.
Results: Out of 286 patients, 221 were diagnosed with moderate acute pancreatitis, while 65 were diagnosed with severe acute pancreatitis. Among these patients, 5 (7.1%) succumbed to complications related to pancreatitis, including 3 males and 2 females. Both the BISAP and Ranson criteria demonstrated significant capability in assessing the severity of both moderate and severe acute pancreatitis with a 95% confidence level. The analysis revealed a statistically significant area under the curve for both criteria (P= 0.002).
Conclusion: Although BISAP and Ranson have both good accuracy and efficacy to determine the severity of pancreatitis, BISAP scoring criteria have higher prognostic accuracy.
