Objectives: Ariel Dynamic Acute Pancreatitis Tracker (ADAPT) is an artificial intelligence tool using mathematical algorithms to predict severity and manage fluid resuscitation needs based on the physiologic parameters of individual patients. Our aim was to assess whether adherence to ADAPT fluid recommendations versus standard management impacted clinical outcomes in a large prospective cohort.
Method: We analyzed patients consecutively admitted to the Los Angeles General Medical Center between June 2015 to November 2022 whose course was richly characterized by capturing more than 100 clinical variables.
