Acute pancreatitis (AP) = acute inflammation; âI GET SMASHEDâ etiology mnemonic â gallstones (50% women) + alcohol (25-30% men) + hypertriglyceridemia (TG > 1000) + ERCP + drugs + idiopathic main causesïŒdiagnosis (2 of 3)ïŒabdominal pain + lipase/amylase > 3x ULN + imaging consistentïŒseverity (Atlanta Revised 2012)ïŒmild (no OF) / moderate (transient OF or local complications) / severe (persistent OF > 48 h)ïŒseverity markersïŒBISAP score, CRP > 150 at 48 h, hemoconcentration, persistent SIRSïŒtreatmentïŒaggressive IV LR (lactated Ringerâs preferred â PAMPHLET trial) but not over-resuscitate (WATERFALL 2022 â moderate sufficient) + analgesia (IV opioids) + early oral feeding > NJ tube > TPN + ERCP within 24-72 h for gallstone with cholangitis or persistent obstruction + cholecystectomy before discharge for mild gallstone AP + antibiotics ONLY for infected necrosis (procalcitonin, culture, gas on imaging)ïŒlocal complicationsïŒacute fluid collection â pseudocyst (4+ weeks, non-epithelial) vs acute necrotic collection â walled-off necrosis (WON 4+ weeks); step-up approach (PANTER trial) percutaneous â endoscopic â surgical; endoscopic transmural drainage with LAMS preferred for WONïŒchronic pancreatitis (CP)ïŒirreversible parenchymal damage; alcohol most common (50%+) + smoking independent + hereditary (PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR, CASR) + CF + autoimmune; clinical = chronic pain + exocrine insufficiency (steatorrhea + ADEK deficiency) + endocrine insufficiency (Type 3c diabetes â brittle, often insulin-requiring); diagnosis = imaging (CT, MRCP, EUS) + fecal elastase + secretin-MRCP; treatment = alcohol + smoking cessation + PERT (pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy) + insulin + analgesia (multimodal, avoid chronic opioids) + endoscopic (stent, ESWL) for ductal + surgery (Beger, Frey, Whipple, TPIAT)ïŒautoimmune pancreatitis (AIP)ïŒType 1 IgG4-related (multi-system, sausage-shaped pancreas, elderly males) + Type 2 idiopathic duct-centric (younger, IBD association) â both steroid-responsiveã
353.4.2 ð æ²»ç粟èŠ
- AP IV fluidsïŒlactated Ringerâs preferred (PAMPHLET) but moderate rate (WATERFALL â avoid over-resuscitation); goal-directed (UO, HR, BP, Hct < 44)
- AP analgesiaïŒIV opioids (morphine, hydromorphone, fentanyl)
- AP nutritionïŒearly oral feeding as tolerated > nasojejunal (NJ) tube > TPN (improves outcomes)
- gallstone APïŒERCP within 24-72 h for cholangitis/persistent obstruction; cholecystectomy before discharge for mild
- hypertriglyceridemia AP (TG > 1000)ïŒinsulin infusion ± heparin ± apheresis + lipid-lowering
- antibiotics for APïŒonly for confirmed infected necrosis; carbapenem if needed
- necrotizing pancreatitis drainageïŒstep-up approach (PANTER trial) â percutaneous â endoscopic â surgical; endoscopic transmural with lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) preferred for WON
- CPïŒalcohol + smoking cessation foundational + PERT (pancrelipase 25,000-75,000 units lipase per meal) + ADEK vitamins + insulin for Type 3c DM + multimodal analgesia (avoid chronic opioids if possible) + endoscopic (stent, ESWL for ductal stones) + TPIAT (total pancreatectomy with islet auto-transplant) for refractory pain
- autoimmune pancreatitisïŒsteroids (prednisone 30-40 mg taper) + rituximab + MMF for refractory; IgG4-RD systemic management

- AP âI GET SMASHEDâ mnemonicïŒIdiopathic, Gallstones (50% women), Ethanol (25-30% men), Trauma, Steroids, Mumps + viruses, Autoimmune, Scorpion bite, Hyperlipidemia/Hypercalcemia, ERCP, Drugs
- AP diagnosis 2 of 3ïŒabdominal pain + lipase > 3x ULN (more specific than amylase) + imaging consistent
- Atlanta Revised 2012 severityïŒmild (no OF), moderate (transient OF < 48 h or local complications), severe (persistent OF > 48 h â high mortality)
- PAMPHLET (2022) + WATERFALL (2022)ïŒlactated Ringerâs preferred over NS + moderate fluid resuscitation sufficient (avoid over-resuscitation â volume overload)
- AP nutrition paradigm shiftïŒearly oral feeding as tolerated improves outcomes over NPO + NJ tube + TPN ; ârest the pancreasâ outdated
- antibiotics in AP only for infected necrosis (procalcitonin elevated, positive culture, gas on imaging); routine antibiotics not beneficial; carbapenem for infected
- necrotizing pancreatitis step-up approach (PANTER trial)ïŒpercutaneous drainage â endoscopic transmural â surgical necrosectomy; endoscopic transmural with lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) preferred for WON
- chronic pancreatitis (CP)ïŒalcohol > 50% + smoking independent + synergy; PERT for exocrine + Type 3c diabetes (brittle, often insulin-requiring) for endocrine; alcohol + smoking cessation foundational
- autoimmune pancreatitis Type 1 (IgG4-related)ïŒmulti-system (Riedel thyroiditis, retroperitoneal fibrosis, sialadenitis, Mikulicz, aortitis) + elderly males + sausage-shaped pancreas on imaging + IgG4 elevated; steroid-responsive
- autoimmune pancreatitis Type 2 (idiopathic duct-centric)ïŒyounger + IBD association + granulocytic epithelial lesions; steroid-responsive; differentiates from Type 1 by absence of IgG4 + extra-pancreatic findings
