Abstract:
Objective To study the utility of acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) grading system in the strategy of diagnosis and treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in patients for the guidance of nutritional support.Methods Forty-five patients with SAP admitted to the ICU from January 2012 to December 2013 were enrolled for study.The diagnosis of SAP was made as per the 2013 Chinese guideline of dliagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis.The patients with aged ＜ 18 years,length of hospital stay ＜72 h,and those included in other experimental study were excluded.The patients were divided into two groups:AGI group (n =24) and control group (n =21).There were no statistically significant differences in age,gender,APACHE Ⅱ between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The length of hospital stay,in-hospital mortality,the incidence of complications such as infection,the time of starting enteral nutrition (EN) and reaching caloric goal were compared between the two groups.The t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used for continuous variables and x2 test or Fisher exact test was used for categorical variables,and P ＜ 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results (1) Between two groups,there were statistically significant differences in the time of starting EN (2.0 d vs.5.7 d,Z =-4.149,P ＜0.01) and reaching caloric goal (5.5 d vs.10.4 d,Z =-3.392,P =0.001).(2) Between two groups,there were statistically significant differences in the incidence of pneumonia (25％ vs.57.14％,P =0.028 1) and catheterrelated infection (0％ vs.23.81％,P =0.039 4).(3) Between two groups,there was no statistically significant difference in in-hospital mortality (16.67％ vs.33.33％,P =0.194 3).In addition,there was significant difference in length of hospital stay between two groups (23.13 ± 10.58) d vs.(31.10 ± 15.33) d,P =0.046.Conclusions The diagnosis and treatment strategy based on AGI grading system is associated with earlier initiation of EN and reaching caloric goal,and partly reduces the incidence of infections and shortens the length of hospital stay,in the meantime,provides guidance for the rationale of nutritional support in the patients with SAP.
