Popis: Summary Various causes of acute pancreatitis are commonly encountered in the intensive care unit. Some of these factors such as trauma, transplantation, and various cardiac and noncardiac surgery bring patients to the intensive care unit. In other patients, the pancreatitis develops subsequently. A high degree of suspicion is indicated, but not all hyperamylasemia is pancreatitis.
