Abstract: In March 2024, the American College of Gastroenterology updated the American College of Gastroenterology Guidelines: management of acute pancreatitis, based on recent epidemiological data and clinical researches associated with the diagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis. These updates cover various aspects, including diagnosis, etiology, initial assessment and risk stratification, initial management, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), preventing post-ERCP pancreatitis, antibiotic application, nutrition support and surgical intervention in acute pancreatitis, forming 11 recommendations and 23 key con-cepts. The new guidelines comprehensively describe the diagnosis and treatment processes of acute pancreatitis. The new guideline offers more detailed, specific and rigorous directions to optimize the diagnosis and treatment processes for acute pancreatitis, enhance the standardization of clinical practice, improve patients' prognosis, and promote the rational use of healthcare resources.
