Inclusion

  • Patients age greater or equal to 18 presenting to one of the collaborating centers
  • Diagnosis of acute pancreatitis according to the revised Atlanta classification which requires 2 of the following 3 criteria: A) Typical abdominal pain; B) Increase in serum amylase or lipase levels higher than 3 times the upper limit of normality; and C) Signs of AP in imaging.

Exclusion

  • Uncontrolled arterial hypertension (systolic blood pressure \>180 and/or diastolic blood pressure 100 mmHg);
  • New York Heart Association Class II hear failure (slight limitation of physical activity; fatigue, palpitations or dyspnea with ordinal physical activity) or worse, or ejection fraction\<50% in the last echocardiography;
  • Decompensated cirrhosis (Child's Class B or C);
  • Hyper or hyponatremia (\<135 or \>145 mEq/l);
  • Hyperkalemia (\>5 mEq/l);
  • Hypercalcemia (albumin or protein-corrected calcium\>10.5 mg/dl);
  • Chronic kidney failure (basal glomerular filtration rate \<60 mL/min/1.73m2);
  • Clinical signs or symptoms of volume overload or heart failure at recruitment (dyspnea, peripheral edema, pulmonary rales, or evident increased jugular ingurgitation at 45º);
  • Shock or respiratory failure according to the revised Atlanta classification at recruitment (non-fluid responding systolic blood pressure\< 90 mmHg, PaO2/FIO2≤300 mmHg);
  • Time from pain onset to arrival to emergency room \>24h;
  • Time from confirmation of pancreatitis to randomization \>8h;
  • Severe comorbidity associated with an estimated life expectancy \<1 year;
  • Confirmed chronic pancreatitis (in case of recurrent alcoholic pancreatitis a recent (\<6 months) CT scan/MRI or endoscopic ultrasound is needed to rule out chronic pancreatitis
