Invasive treatments for complications of acute pancreatitis
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests if invasive procedures (like draining fluid or removing dead tissue) can help people with complications from acute pancreatitis that do not improve with medicines or other non-surgical care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with acute pancreatitis.
- You have complications from the pancreatitis (like fluid collections, cysts, or infections) that can be seen on imaging tests (CT scan, ultrasound).
- You are willing to take part in the study and sign a consent form.
- You have not already gotten better with non-surgical treatments alone.

This study observes adults with acute pancreatitis to learn more about how the condition presents and what happens to patients over time. By participating, you can help researchers improve care for this painful condition.
This study looks at why some people develop diabetes after acute pancreatitis and how that process works in the body. It may help doctors better predict risk and tailor care for people recovering from pancreatitis.
This study tracks patients who get endoscopic treatment for fluid collections in or around the pancreas. It aims to collect data to improve care for future patients.
This trial collects blood samples from people with infected pancreatic necrosis to find patterns that help diagnose the condition. The goal is to reduce the need for invasive tests and start treatment faster.
This trial studies how “inflammation” in the pancreas changes over time—going from a first or repeated attack to long-term (chronic) pancreatitis. It may help doctors understand what drives progression and identify people at higher risk for chronic disease.
This trial looks at how severe acute pancreatitis works by using advanced tests on your body's germs, chemicals, and proteins. It may help find better ways to treat patients with this condition.
