Abstract

Despite the increasing incidence of acute pancreatitis, the overall mortality of AP has decreased. The findings of recent studies on fluid therapy, analgesics, antibiotics, and enteral nutrition as well as the management of AP complications have led to improvements in clinical care. However, there are still no pharmacologic treatment(s) for AP. Experimental studies have revealed many potential therapeutic targets, but these will need to be further developed and tested before they can be assessed in randomized controlled trials with important clinical endpoints.
