Brief Summary

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is inflammation of the pancreas usually triggered by gallstones or drinking excessive alcohol. 80% of people who have an episode of AP will recover without complications. However, 20% will require treatment in high dependency or intensive care for multiple organ dysfunction (AP-MODS). It is known that this negatively affects recovery and can have a lasting effect on health although it is incompletely understood what causes this. Aim: To recruit 500 patients with acute pancreatitis. Participants will be assessed at recruitment and and again at 3 and 36 months. Recovery of organ function will be serially measured and the presence of novel factors important in recovery assessed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Annual incidence of new-onset type 3c diabetes mellitis in patients with AP

    Do patients that have had AP develop type 3c diabetes mellitis more frequently?

    66 months

  • Nested cohort only - difference in the 3 month to 36 month change in pancreatic fibrosis index between participants with AP with MODS and those with AP without MODS

    Assess any damage to pancreas at 3 and 36 months and monitor how this changes throughout the course of the trial comparing participants with AP only and those with AP and MODS

    66 months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Specific gene and promoter sequence variation between participants with AP and AP-MODS

    66 months

  • miRNA signatures of disease severity and resolution

    66 months

  • Metabolomic profiling of AP resolution.

    66 months

  • Incidence of premature cellular senescence as a pathological consequence of AP-MODS.

    66 months

  • Alteration in immune cell subset phenotype as a long-term response to AP-MODS

    66 months

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Main cohort

Patients with a clinical or radiological diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP)

Nested cohort

Subgroup of patients with a clinical or radiological diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) who will undergo additional assessments and scans

Study Population

Patients treated at the Royal Infirmary Edinburgh with a clinical or radiological diagnosis of acute pancreatitis.

You may qualify if:

  • All patients treated at Royal Infirmary Edinburgh with a clinical or radiological diagnosis of acute pancreatitis will be recruited where possible.
  • For the potential clinical diagnosis of acute pancreatitis an appropriate clinical history based on compatible clinical features, will be required (i.e. abdominal pain, nausea and/or vomiting), supported by the finding of elevated serum amylase greater than 3x the upper limit of the reference range for the laboratory (currently 300 U/L).
  • For the radiological diagnosis, if applicable, computerised tomography (CT) and/or ultrasound scan (USS) evidence of acute pancreatitis will be accepted.

You may not qualify if:

  • i. Patients under the age of 16 years will be excluded from the present study. ii. Prisoners will be excluded from the present study. iii. Patients lacking the capacity to consent will be excluded but can be included if they regain capacity.
  • iv. Patients not able to undergo MRI scanning for technical reasons will be excluded (e.g. those with cochlear implants, implanted pacemaker) v. Patients with a known allergy to salbutamol
