Objetive
Acute pancreatitis of biliary origin is a common gastrointestinal pathology, in which timely management still is the most important. The aims of this research is establish the socioeconomic impact in the current management of severe acute pancreatitis of biliary origin comparing two centers of the third level, one of high socioeconomic population and another of low in Bogotá, Colombia.
Materials and Methods
A retrospective, cross-sectional comparative study was conducted between January 2012 and December 2017, in two hospitals of Bogotá DC. We evaluated their socioeconomic characteristics, gender, time of evolution at the time of consultation, Marshall score, ICU stay, hospital stay, complications, surgical management and mortality.
Results
101 patients from two different socioeconomic strata (high and low) were analyzed, where a 10 times higher risk of requiring a surgical procedure in the group of patients with low stratum was found, as well as a higher mortality compared with those of high stratum. (11.3% Vs 4.2%). There were also more complications in the low socioeconomic group with respect to the high, as in the exocrine failure (81.1% vs 31.3%) and the compartment syndrome (35.8% vs 4.2%).
Conclusion
