ABSTRACT
Acute pancreatitis has two mortality peaks, which occurs within the first 2 weeks due to organ failure and then weeks or months later as result of multi-organ failure and local complications. Although there have been several clinical and multidisciplinary evaluation measures, imaging tests, and serological tests proposed to forecast severe acute pancreatitis, there is still no single test available to reliably predict the disease severity and time of death. Future large-scale studies are required to develop an assessment scale that can accurately predict the prognosis and mortality risk of severe acute pancreatitis.
