Brief Summary

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

Cardiovascular system involvement with acute pancreatitis has been described before in the form of ECG changes and echocardiographic findings. However the correlation between these changes and the outcome of acute pancreatitis has not been and whether they can be used to predict mortality in these patients has been controversial.In the current study our aim is to detect echocardioghraphic and ECG changes in acute pancreatitis and investigate the significance of these changes on prognosis.

Detailed Description

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

Acute pancreatitis is a relatively common disease with significant morbidity and mortality. About 75% of pancreatitis is caused by gallstones or alcohol. The Atlanta classification of acute pancreatitis has been used to differentiate between severe and mild cases of acute pancreatitis. According to this classification, patients are diagnosed with severe acute pancreatitis if they show evidence of organ failure, Local complications (eg, necrosis, abscess, pseudocyst), Ranson score of 3 or higher or APACHE score of 8 or higher. Severe acute pancreatitis has a wide range of affection on nearly all body systems with various degrees of affection than affect both the clinical picture and the prognosis of the disease. the cardiovascular system involvement has been described before ,in the form of ECG changes (sinus tachycardia, arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities.. ) and echocardiographic findings (diastolic,systolic or combined dysfunction, wall motion abnormalities, pericardial effusion..). However the correlation between these changes and the outcome of acute pancreatitis has not been and whether they can be used to predict mortality in these patients has been controversial.In the current study our aim is to detect echocardioghraphic and ECG changes in acute pancreatitis and investigate the significance of these changes on prognosis.
