Actual (reported)The objective of this study is to evaluate the use of the ABTHERA ADVANCE for patients requiring open abdomen due to necrotizing pancreatitis. The institutions traditional approach is to use the ABTHERA Open Abdomen dressing with Wittmann patch. However, the ABTHERA ADVANCE has shown in vitro to have improved tension on the abdominal wall that may obviate the need for costly Wittmann patch placement.

Determine the variable cost savings associated with use of ABTHERA ADVANCE™ without the use of Wittmann patch.
3 months after the last participant has been enrolled.
Effectiveness
3 months after the last participant has been enrolled.
Patients with necrotizing pancreatitis that require an open abdomen after their initial operation will be treated with ABTHERA ADVANCE only, without the use of Wittmann patch.
In this group, patients will be receiving only the ABTHERA Advance product, without the use of the Wittmann Patch

The target study population is patients with necrotizing pancreatitis that require an open abdomen. Pancreatitis is a wide spectrum of disease, however patients with necrotizing pancreatitis are a relatively small subset. As a quaternary care center for patients with pancreatic diseases, most patients in Atrium's care network with severe necrotizing pancreatitis are referred to Carolinas Medical Center. The patients that will be approached for this study are those in the intensive care unit that develop abdominal compartment syndrome or severe pancreatitis requiring laparotomy. The goal for patient enrollment will be 20 patients and outcomes for these patients will be compared to a historical cohort of 40 patients.
