Ranson and BISAP Score APP
-The original Ranson criteria is a scoring system that uses 11 parameters to assess the severity of acute pancreatitis. The 11 parameters are age, white blood cell count (WBC), blood glucose, serum aspartate transaminase (AST), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), serum calcium, fall in hematocrit, arterial oxygen (PaO2), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), base deficit, and sequestration of fluids.
-the modified criteria have 10 parameters used to score gallbladder pancreatitis
-The BISAP score allows for early identification of patients at increased risk for in-hospital mortality. The score was developed using data collected from approximately 18,000 cases of acute pancreatitis from more than 200 hospitals between 2000 and 2001.
