Risk Factors for ARDS in Patients With Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis

January 22, 2021 updated by: Bin He, Nanjing Medical University
Try to collect about 350 cases of acute necrotizing pancreatitis at the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University and Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command. Then the investigators studied the incidence and the risk factors of ARDS in patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Using electronic patient data monitoring systems, the investigators reviewed all patients with a diagnosis of pancreatitis admitted to surgical wards or ICUs at the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University and Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command from January 1, 2009, to October 31, 2015. Inclusion criteria were adult patients (age >18 years) with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. Exclusion criteria were as follows : 1) lack of radiologic evidence to diagnose acute necrotizing pancreatitis, 2) presence of ARDS before admission to hospitals, 3) unable to partner treatment and leaving hospitals, 4) transferring to the investigators' hospitals after treatment, 5) missing other necessary data, and 6) pregnancy.

For enrolled patients, general clinical characteristics were collected. Patients were categorized into two groups according to ARDS or non-ARDS, and the differences of these characteristics between two groups were evaluated. Potential risk factors were collected and studied by using multiple logistic regression analysis.

Design Details

  • Observational Models: Case-Control

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
ARDS group

non-ARDS group
acute necrotizing pancreatitis patients without ARDS

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
the incidence of ARDS in patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis
Time Frame: up to 2 months
up to 2 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the risk factors for ARDS in patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis
Time Frame: up to 2 months
Potential risk factors included smoking, alcohol abuse, diabetes mellitus, abdominal surgery, shock, hypoalbuminaemia, hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia.Univariate analyses examined potential risk factors on outcome (ARDS or non-ARDS). Then, using multiple logistic regression analysis, factors achieving P≤0.1 in univariate analyses were entered into the model predicting the risk for the onset of ARDS.
up to 2 months

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the effect of ARDS on mortality in patients with severe acute pancreatitis
Time Frame: up to 2 months
The mortality were compared between ARDS and non-ARDS patients with severe acute pancreatitis. The differences were evaluated by χ2 or Fisher exact test.
up to 2 months
