THE RESULTS OF PLASMA EXCHANGE IN HYPERTRIGLYCERIDEMIA- INDUCED PANCREATITIS PATIENTS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of plasma exchange in hypertriglyceridemia-inducted pancreatitis patients. Methods: There are twenty- five patients who met the selection criteria of the study. Results: The male has 80,0%, the average age was 42,4 ± 9,2. Alcohol abuse, prior history of acute pancreatitis, and dyslipidemia were the most common medical conditions in history (52,0; 52,0, and 40,0%). The ratio of severity pancreatitis patients (Balthazar E) was 64,0%, and the average CTSI score was 4,74 (SD: 2,03). The length of intensive care unit stay was 4,9 days and hospital stay was 9,9 days. The average total hospital cost was 48 million VND/patient. The majority of patients have one time of TPE with 88% and 56% of them have minor allergies. Before and post-TPE, triglyceride levels decreased by an average of 45,70 mmol/L (82,5%) and the average triglyceride level was 55,92 mmol/L (93,5%) from hospitalization to discharge.Conclusion: Plasma exchange is an effective and safe treatment for patients with acute pancreatitis caused by hypertriglyceridemia.
