AbstractAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is very common in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), the early interventions are essential to the prognosis of SAP patients. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors for ARDS in SAP patients, to provide insights into the management of SAP.SAP patients treated in our hospital from June 1, 2018 to May 31, 2020 were included. The characteristics and lab test results were collected and compared, and we conducted the logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the potential risk factors for ARDS in patients with SAP.A total of 281 SAP patients were included finally, the incidence of ARDS in patients with SAP was 30.60%. There were significant differences on the respiratory rate, heart rate, APACHE II and Ranson score between 2 groups (all P < .05). And there were significant differences on the polymorphonuclear, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, serum creatinine, albumin and PO2/FiO2 between 2 groups (all P < .05), and no significant differences on the K+, Na+, Ca+, white blood cell, neutrophils, urine and blood amylase, trypsin, lipase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, triglyceride, total cholesterol, total bilirubin, fasting blood glucose, and pH were found (all P > .05). Respiratory rate >30/min (odds ratio [OR]: 2.405, 95% confidence interval[CI]: 1.163-4.642), APACHE II score >11 (OR: 1.639, 95% CI: 1.078-2.454), Ranson score >5 (OR: 1.473, 95% CI: 1.145-2.359), polymorphonuclear >14 × 109/L (OR: 1.316, 95% CI: 1.073-2.328), C-reactive protein >150 mg/L (OR: 1.127, 95% CI: 1.002-1.534), albumin ≤30 g/L (OR: 1.113, 95% CI: 1.005-1.489) were the independent risk factors for ARDS in patients with SAP (all P < .05).The incidence of ARDS in SAP patients is relatively high, and it is necessary to carry out targeted early prevention and treatment for the above risk factors.Copyright © 2021 the Author(s).
