Description

Yang et al reported a model for evaluating a pregnant woman with pancreatitis. This can help to identify a patient with more severe disease. The authors are from West China Hospital and Sichuan University in Chengdu.


Patient selection: pregnant woman with pancreatitis

 

Parameters:

(1) serum LDH in U/L, from 0 to 1,100

(2) serum albumin in g/L, from 16 to 46

(3) serum triglyceride in mmol/L, from 0 to 45

(4) serum total cholesterol in mmol/L, from 0 to 40

 

points for serum LDH =

= 0.0909 * (LDH)

 

points for albumin =

= 107.33 - (2.33 * (albumin))

 

points for serum triglycerides =

= 0.8667 * (triglycerides)

 

points for serum cholesterol =

= 0.5075 * (cholesterol)

 

total score =

= SUM(points for all of the parameters)

 

Interpretation:

• minimum score: 0

• maximum score: 229.3

 

value of X =

= (0.07577 * (score)) - 5.951

 

probability of moderate or severe pancreatitis =

= 1 / (1 + EXP((-1) * X))
