Results

In this study, 80 patients were enrolled and included in the final analysis. The study subjects had a mean age of 39.33 +/- 13.3 years and 62(77.5%) of them were male. Alcohol was the etiology for pancreatitis in 67.5% (n=54) of patients. Mean VAS scores at baseline and 24 hours were similar in the two groups. Similarly, the change of scores from the baseline to the 24 hours did not differ between the groups. Comparison of pain improvements failed to reveal any differences between groups
