8 Abstract Comparative Study of Local Intra-Arterial Infusion Therapy of Protease Inhibitor and Antibiotics and Combination Therapy with Continuous Hemodiafiltration for Severe Acute Pancreatitis Suehiro NAKANO 1, Masaki NAGAYA 2 and Hiroyuki KOMORIYAMA 3 The subjects for study consisted of 20 patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Thirteen patients in Group A received local intra-arterial infusion therapy. Seven patients in Group B received combination therapy with continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF). A retrospective comparative study was conducted to compare the survival rates, serial changes in APACHE II scores, and in the number of organ dysfunctions between Groups A and B. As a result, the survival rate was 100% in Group A and 57.1% in Group B. Eight out of 13 patients (62%) in Group A had APACHE II scores less than 6.0 after 28 days of therapy compared to 1 out of 5 (20%) in Group B. In addition, 1 out of 13 patients (7.7%) had organ dysfunction in Group A compared to 2 out of 5 (40%) in Group B. A statistical significance was noted between Group A and B. Our results showed that there were more favorable therapeutic effects in Group A than in Group B. We have speculated that in combination therapy, local inflammatory cytokine production in the pancreas could be suppressed by intra-arterial infusion therapy; and CHDF would remove anti-inflammatory cytokines and inflammatory cytokine inhibitors rather than the inflammatory cytokines. Under these conditions favorable for compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome, CARS, the patient would become and immunodeficient leading to the above-mentioned results. 1 Division of General Surgery, St.Marianna University School of Medicine 2 Department of Emargiency and Clitical Care Medicine, St.Marianna University School of Medicine 3 Department of Gastro-intestinal Surgery, St.Marianna University School of Medicine, Yokohama City Seibu Hospital 12
