biostudies-literatureUnknown67(4)Rasch STechnische Universität München<h4>Background</h4>Early identification of patients with acute severe pancreatitis is important for prompt and adequate treatment. Existing scores for pancreatitis are often laborious or require serial patient evaluation, whereas the qSOFA score, that was established to predict outcome in patients with suspected infection, is simple to perform.<h4>Aims and methods</h4>In this cohort study, we analyse the potential of the qSOFA score to predict outcome of patients with acute pancreatitis and refine the qSOFA score by rapid available laboratory parameters to the emergency room assessment of acute pancreatitis (ERAP) score. Validation was performed in a separate patient cohort.<h4>Results</h4>In total 203 patients with acute pancreatitis were recruited. The qSOFA score has the potential to prDigestive diseases and sciences1371-1378https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC8976770biostudies-literaturePrediction of Outcome in Acute Pancreatitis by the qSOFA and the New ERAP Score.PMC8976770Pichlmeier EMRasch SHuber WMayr ULahmer TPhillip VSchmid RMfalsePrediction of Outcome in Acute Pancreatitis by the qSOFA and the New ERAP Score.<h4>Background</h4>Early identification of patients with acute severe pancreatitis is important for prompt and adequate treatment.
