Overview
Brief Summary
- To determine the appropriate timing of surgical intervention after Percutaneous Catheter Drainage (PCD) in infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN).
- To see the change in morbidity and mortality after changing the interval of surgery after PCD
Detailed Description
In present study we plan to determine the appropriate timing of surgical intervention after PCD in step up approach of Infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN).
The investigators also intend to evaluate the role of PCD in obviating the surgical intervention in the management of IPN and evaluate the risks & benefits of extended treatment policy of PCD in step up approach of IPN in comparison to early surgery after PCD.

Eligibility Criteria
- Ages
- 14 Years to 85 Years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)
- Sex
- All
- Accepts Healthy Volunteers
- No
Inclusion Criteria
- •All patients with diagnosis of IPN (UK GUIDELINES) managed with percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) for 10 to 15 days and not showing significant improvement on PCD will be included
Exclusion Criteria
- •Patient showing significant improvement on PCD within 10 days of its insertion.(Significant improvement on PCD is defined as resolution of fever, acceptance of enteral nutrition, decrease in total leukocyte count, reversal of organ system failure)
- •Sterile pancreatic necrosis
- •An acute intra abdominal event ( perforation of hollow viscus, bleeding, or the abdominal compartment syndrome) during or within 10 days after PCD insertion
- •Previous drainage or surgical necrosectomy for infected pancreatic necrosis (ERCP with or without papillotomy is allowed.)
- •Previous exploratory laparotomy for acute abdomen and diagnosis of pancreatitis during laparotomy
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Mortality
Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average duration of 5 weeks
Reversal of existing organ failure
Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average duration of 5 weeks
New onset multiorgan failure or sepsis and systemic complications
Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average duration of 5 weeks
Locoregional complications
Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average duration of 5 weeks
Pseudocyst, Pancreatic fistula, Enteric fistula, Perforation of a hollow viscus, and bleeding requiring intervention
Secondary Outcomes
- Pancreatic insufficiency (New onset Diabetes and steatorrhea)(participants will be followed for the duration of hospital discharge to end of our study period, an expected average duration of 1 year)
- Proportion of patients in which surgery would be avoided in Group B(participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average duration of 5 weeks)
- Total number of PCD catheters and catheter related interventions required, and catheter and drain related complications(participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average duration of 5 weeks)
