Abstract:
Acute biliary tract infection is a common digestive system emergency, which is prone to complications and high risk of death. Therefore, paying attention to the early identification of the severity of the disease in patients with acute biliary tract infection and taking appropriate intervention measures for complications will help to improve the survival rate of patients and shorten the length of hospital stay. Six articles in this column introduced the early severity identification and diagnosis methods of acute cholangitis and the clinical characteristics of common complications such as liver abscess and sepsis myocardial injury, and elaborated the treatment effect from the perspective of Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.
