The difficulty in predicting outcome in acute pancreatitis
Abstract
Current methods to predict the development of severe pancreatitis are complex, cumbersome, and inaccurate. Simpler scoring systems like the one studied in this issue of the Journal are an improvement in simplicity but not in accuracy. More sophisticated approaches are needed for more accurate prediction, which would allow improved triage and management of these patients.
