PtitStudien: Osteopontin as a Biomarker in Pancreatitis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In the early phase of pancreatits, factors that can give information about the development of severety are still lacking. In this study patients will be included prospectively upon the diagnosis of pancreatits and clinical as well as labarotory and radiological factors will be sampled. The aim is do identifiy factors that may aid in the risk stratification for development of different severity grades of pancreatitis.

Patients admitted and diagnosed with pancreatitis (according to the Atlanta criteria) will have serial testing of se-osteopontin in addiation to rutine blood work. Computet tomograpy and chest x-ray are mandatory as is blood culture.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Se-osteopontin [Within 3 days from diagnosis]
Se-osteopontin will be measured at admission and on day 2 and 3 of hospital stay. The change over time will be correlated to severety of pancreatitis as classified in the current Atlanta classification.
