Serum amylase and lipase levels for prediction of postendoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis
Journal of Research in Medical Sciences Jun 20, 2018
Minakari M, et al. - In this cross-sectional study, the researchers evaluated 2- and 4-h postendoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) serum amylase and lipase levels for prediction of post-ERCP, pancreatitis (PEP), and their predictive cutoff values. From March 2014 to June 2015, 300 adult subjects who underwent ERCP procedures in the referral hospital in Isfahan were considered. The findings from the present study suggested that measurements of serum amylase and lipase 2- and 4-h post-ERCP could be useful in prediction of PEP.
