Condition: Acute Pancreatitis (AP) · Severe Acute Pancreatitis · Sponsor: Peking Union Medical College Hospital
Introduction: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common condition, with 20% of cases progressing to severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), which is associated with a poor prognosis. Early identification of patients likely to progress to SAP is crucial for timely intervention. This study aims to use bowel sound monitoring to predict early progression to SAP in AP patients. Methods and analysis: This study is a prospective, multi-center prognostic study . Investigators will consecutively recruit newly diagnosed acute pancreatitis (AP) patients at emergency departments across three centers from December 2023. Upon enrollment, each patient will undergo continuous bowel sound monitoring for at least 48 hours using standardized equipment and procedures. The primary outcome is the occurrence of SAP during hospitalization. Collected bowel sound data will be analyzed by an unsupervised automated algorithm to estimate a bowel sound activity index, which serves as the main diagnostic indicator for SAP. This process will be fully blinded to patients' SAP status. Investigators will calculate the ROC curve and area under the curve (AUC) for the bowel sound activity index's ability to diagnose SAP. Additionally, this study will perform exploratory analyses on differences in gut microbiota and serum intestinal permeability markers (diamine oxidase, D-lactic acid, and bacterial endotoxin) between patients with and without SAP. Investigators will also assess whether bowel sound monitoring can reflect the…
