China: A study has concluded that APRS stratifies Acute Pancreatitis (AP) patients into high and low risk of Intensive care unit (ICU) admission within 48 hours of post-hospitalization. This is clinically valuable in managing and personalized therapeutic selection in such patients.
The findings of the study are published in Digestive Diseases and Sciences.
Lei Yuan, Lei Shen, Mengyao Ji, and Xinyu Wen from the School of Automation, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology and the Department of Information Center, Wuhan University Renmin Hospital, Wuhan, Hubei, China, conducted a study to develop and validate an easy-to-use risk score (APRS) for AP patients who need ICU treatment within 48 h post-hospitalization.
