Abstract: Background: To evaluate the effects of nitroglycerin combined with continuous regional arterial infusion (CRAI) on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), triglyceride (TG), inflammatory factors and prognosis. Methods: SAP patients were randomly divided into control and observation groups (n=169). The control group was treated with intravenous infusion of nitroglycerin once daily for 2 d, while the observation group was treated with nitroglycerin combined with CRAI for 7 d. Their hospitalization time, abdominal pain relief time, abdominal distension relief time and intestinal function recovery time were recorded. The levels of inflammatory factors, and TG were measured. Their liver and kidney functions, hemorheological indices, prognosis, and adverse reactions were evaluated. Results: The observation group had significantly shorter hospitalization time, abdominal pain relief time, abdominal distension relief time, and intestinal function recovery time than those of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, endothelin, thromboxane A2 and TG significantly decreased in contrast with those before treatment in both groups, especially in the observation group (P<0.05). The hemorheological indices were significantly improved after treatment compared with those before treatment in both groups, and the observation group had better indices (P<0.05). The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation-II score declined significantly in both groups after treatment, and the observation group had a more obvious decrease (P<0.05). During follow-up, similar incidence rates of adverse reactions were observed for both groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: Nitroglycerin combined with CRAI is prominently effective for treating SAP, which can facilitate the health recovery and reduce the incidence of microcirculation disturbance-induced adverse events such as organ failure.
