【Abstract】Objective  To investigate the protective effect of improving the pancreatic ischemia and calcium channel blockers on preventing the progression of acute pancreatitis. Methods  Twenty-four patients with mild acute pancreatitis were randomly divided into two groups: control group and treated group. Within the first 72 hours from the onset of AP, routine conservative managements were performed in control group, improving the pancreatic ischemia and preventing Ca2+ overload were performed in treated group for two weeks. The hemorrheological parameters were measured at 1,4,7,14 days after adimission, simultanously, serum TNFα, IL-1β, C-reactive protein and plasma TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1α levels were determined with ELISA methods. Results  The hemorrheological changes were improved in treated group, serum TNFα, IL-1β, C-reactive protein and plasma TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1α levels were significantly decreased each time point in treated group as compared with control group. Conclusion  Improving the pancreatic ischemia and calcium channel blockers have protective effect through reducing the generation of cytokines and inflammatory mediators on preventing the progression of acute pancreatitis.
