Cardiovascular Alterations Associated with Acute Pancreatitis
Acute pancreatitis is clinically characterized by abdominal pain accompanied by elevated serum levels of pancreatic enzymes (amylase and lipase). Pain is the hallmark of acute pancreatitis and, as a presenting symptom; it is localized in the epigastrium in more than 60% of patients having mild or severe disease [1]. Thus, the differential diagnosis is sometime difficult because acute pancreatit...

متن کاملDiagnostic use of pancreatic lipase determination by radial enzyme diffusion, and design of a routine pancreatic profile.
The differential diagnosis of diseases of the pancreas remains an acute problem area in medicine today. It can be stated with some certainty that no single test has the capability of 100% accuracy in the diagnosis of pancreatic disease, much less in the determination of the etiology of the condition. Basically, from the viewpoint of the clinical laboratory, inflammatory diseases of the pancreas...
متن کاملSerum lipase activity is increased in disease states other than acute pancreatitis: amylase revisited.
For more than 50 years, total serum amylase activity has been the biochemical test most commonly used to confirm the clinical diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. Serum amylase activity has been hoisted onto this pedestal by default, because until recently it has been the only reproducible and rapid diagnostic assay available in clinically emergent settings. As a result of our longstanding dependen...
متن کاملAmylase assay and diagnosis of pancreatic disease.
Muffin et al. (1), in this issue, describe a more specific method for pancreatic ainylase in serum. Amylase of salivary origin is precipitated with a monoclonal antibody, and the amylase remaining is presumed to come from the pancreas. It is likely that their test will be more specific for pancreatic disease. Since the recognition of multiple sources of antylase and of the frequency of hyperamy...
