A relationship was studied between the outcomes of severe acute pancreatitis and the pattern and multiple organ dysfunctions in 72 patients. Organ dysfunction was observed in 39 (54.2%) patients: multiple organ dysfunction (MOD) in 20 (27.8%) patients and dysfunction of an organ or a system in 19 (26.4%). The deceased patients had a statistically significantly higher incidence of MOS than the survivors (88.2% versus 9.1%; p < 0.01). Logistic regression showed that only respiratory and neurological dysfunctions were the factors that predispose to death.
