Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a serious gastroenterological condition requiring urgent fluid resuscitation and emergent intensive care. However, the benefit of fluid resuscitation is inconsistent. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effects of fluid resuscitation on the occurrence of organ failure and mortality in patients with AP. ⋯ Increased fluid balance was associated with increased risk of organ failure and mortality. Increased fluid output may decrease mortality.
