Abstract
The Tokyo Guidelines (TG) have enabled more accurate diagnosis of acute cholangitis (AC). However, the TG define moderate AC as AC that does not respond to initial medical treatment, and thus they do not provide definitions for assessment of severity based on the clinical findings on admission. This study was undertaken to develop a new prognostic scoring system to predict the need for urgent ERCP based on the clinical findings on admission.
