Overview
The purpose of this study is to characterize organ dysfunction change in acute necrotizing pancreatitis patients with sepsis after open necrosectomy.
Description
Before surgery, study participants will be asked questions about age, gender, education level, etc. Study participants will also be questioned regarding pancreatic symptoms, as measured on the patient-Reported Outcome Scale in Acute Pancreatitis (including, pain, abdominal distention, eating, bowel movements, nausea and vomiting, thirst, and weakness). Organ dysfunction was defined according to the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score. The SOFA score will be measured at preoperative (T1), postoperative day 1 (T2), postoperative day 3 (T3), postoperative day 7, or at hospital discharge, whichever comes first (T4). Following discharge from the hospital, study participants will be contacted at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery, and asked to complete a survey about their pancreatic symptoms and survival status after surgery.
