简要总结
Acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) is a medical emergency diagnosed by Truelove and Witt’s criteria that require urgent hospitalization & aggressive management. Approximately 15-25% of patients with ulcerative colitis experience a severe flare during the course of their disease. Of these, consistent data have shown that 30–40% of patients will fail to respond to steroid therapy and require rescue therapy or urgent colectomy. The mortality associated with such attacks has fallen from levels of 31–61% to the present level of 1–2% following the introduction of high-dose corticosteroid therapy and the acceptance of a policy of early surgery in patients not responding to medical therapy. Oxford index, index and ADMIT-ASC index are needed to be compared prospectively for the best use to predict steroid responsiveness in patients with ASUC. So, this study will be aimed at prospective comparison of Oxford index, AIIMS index and ADMIT-ASC index to predict steroid response in patients with acute severe ulcerative colitis.
