The purpose of this retrospective study was to characterize the changes in organ dysfunction among patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis complicated by sepsis who underwent open necrosectomy.
Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics (including age, gender, and education level) were collected from medical records. Organ dysfunction was defined according to the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. SOFA scores were extracted at predefined time points: preoperative (T1), postoperative day 1 (T2), postoperative day 3 (T3), and either postoperative day 7 or hospital discharge, whichever occurred first (T4). Postoperative survival status up to 1 year was obtained from the institutional database.

Measure organ dysfunction change after open necrosectomy with respect to time
Organ dysfunction was assessed retrospectively using the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, which ranges from 0 (normal) to 4 (most abnormal) for each organ, with higher scores indicating more severe dysfunction.
Time frame: up to postoperative day 7, or at hospital discharge, whichever comes first
