Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

1. To determine the appropriate timing of surgical intervention after Percutaneous Catheter Drainage (PCD) in infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN).
2. To see the change in morbidity and mortality after changing the interval of surgery after PCD

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In present study we plan to determine the appropriate timing of surgical intervention after PCD in step up approach of Infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN).

The investigators also intend to evaluate the role of PCD in obviating the surgical intervention in the management of IPN and evaluate the risks \& benefits of extended treatment policy of PCD in step up approach of IPN in comparison to early surgery after PCD.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group A

undergo surgery between days 10 - 15 after PCD

Group Type OTHER

surgical intervention after percutaneous catheter drainage

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patients who are not improving by day 10 after PCD insertion will be included in the present study and are randomized to group A (early surgery i.e. between 10-15days after PCD insertion ) or group B (Extended treatment with PCD with saline irrigation for more than 15days after PCD insertion)

Group B

continued with PCD beyond 15 days and indications for surgery in them will be,

1. Persistent sepsis or symptoms
2. Worsening of clinical condition
3. Failure to thrive
4. Complications of SAP or PCD

Group Type OTHER

surgical intervention after percutaneous catheter drainage

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patients who are not improving by day 10 after PCD insertion will be included in the present study and are randomized to group A (early surgery i.e. between 10-15days after PCD insertion ) or group B (Extended treatment with PCD with saline irrigation for more than 15days after PCD insertion)

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All patients with diagnosis of IPN (UK GUIDELINES) managed with percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) for 10 to 15 days and not showing significant improvement on PCD will be included

Exclusion Criteria

1. Patient showing significant improvement on PCD within 10 days of its insertion.(Significant improvement on PCD is defined as resolution of fever, acceptance of enteral nutrition, decrease in total leukocyte count, reversal of organ system failure)
2. Sterile pancreatic necrosis
3. An acute intra abdominal event ( perforation of hollow viscus, bleeding, or the abdominal compartment syndrome) during or within 10 days after PCD insertion
4. Previous drainage or surgical necrosectomy for infected pancreatic necrosis (ERCP with or without papillotomy is allowed.)
5. Previous exploratory laparotomy for acute abdomen and diagnosis of pancreatitis during laparotomy
