Brief Summary
Acute pancreatitis is a common critical disease of the digestive system. Accumulated data showed that overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in acute pancreatitis and experimental pancreatitis could be attenuated with COX-2 inhibitors. In recent years, it has been found that timely administration of indomethacin or diclofenac sodium to anus after ERCP can significantly reduce the incidence of AP after ERCP in patients at high risk of AP. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of rectal indomethacin in reducing the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) score in AP patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS) score at 72 hours after the initial intervention.
The minimum value of SIRS is 0, and the maximum value of SIRS is 4. The higher score means a worse outcome.
72 hours after the initial intervention.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
the serum levels of C-reactive protein(CRP)
72 hours after the initial intervention.
the serum levels of interleukin-6(IL-6)
72 hours after the initial intervention.
score of abdominal pain
72 hours after the initial intervention.
Study Arms (2)
convention
PLACEBO COMPARATORpatients in convention arm receive conventional management according to AP guidelines of International Association of Pancreatology and the Chinese Society of Gastroenterology, including goal-directed fluid resuscitation, oxygen supply even mechanical ventilation, and nutritional support if necessary.
convention + indometacin
EXPERIMENTALBesides the conventional treatment,patients in convention + indometacin arm receive 50-mg indomethacin suppositories at intervals of 12 hours for a total of 6 doses.
Interventions
Besides the conventional treatment, indomethacin will be given to the patients in the convention + indomethacin group.
All enrolled patients received conventional management according to AP guidelines of International Association of Pancreatology and the Chinese Society of Gastroenterology, including goal-directed fluid resuscitation, oxygen supply even mechanical ventilation, and nutritional support if necessary.
Eligibility Criteria

- (i) either gender aged 18-70 years; (ii) a confirmed diagnosis of AP; (iii) the time interval from the onset of symptoms to admission was no more than 48 h; (iv) written informed consent was obtained from the patients or their legal representatives.
You may not qualify if:
- (i) pregnancy and breast feeding mother; (ii) severe chronic diseases such as cardiac dysfunction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, renal insufficiency, cirrhosis, inflammatory bowel diseases, and malignancies; (iii) peptic ulcer; (iv) pancreatitis due to trauma; (v) drug allergy; (vi) drug abuse and psychosis.
