ABSTRACT:

Background: Acute pancreatitis can be a serious condition requiring prompt and effective management. ER care focuses on stabilizing the patient, diagnosing the underlying cause, and planning further treatment to improve outcomes. Aim: To understand the pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis, its presentation, and how to manage it. Method: we conducted this review using a comprehensive search of Google Scholar and PubMed from January 1994 to March 2018. The following search terms were used: Acute, Chronic, Alcoholic, Pancreatitis. Conclusion: pancreatitis presents a complex condition with significant clinical implications. Although acute pancreatitis typically resolves with appropriate treatment, chronic pancreatitis brings about ongoing challenges due to its progressive nature and related complications. The selection of imaging techniques for diagnosing pancreatitis depends on the clinical situation, patient characteristics, and specific information required. Managing pancreatitis involves a combination of supportive care, nutritional support, and tailored interventions addressing the root cause and associated complications. Treatment approaches should be personalized, taking into account the disease's severity, presence of complications, and the patient's overall health. Ongoing research persists in refining these approaches and investigating new treatment options to enhance outcomes for individuals with pancreatitis. Keywords: Acute, Chronic, Alcoholic, Pancreatitis.
