JP drain fluid-to-serum bilirubin concentration ratio greater than 5 seems to be highly sensitive and specific for the detection of a bile leak. Used along with clinical criteria, this ratio could be used to select patients to proceed directly to ERCP.

We performed this study to evaluate JP drain fluid-to-serum bilirubin level ratio in patients with bile leaks docu-mented by ERCP, as well as in both surgical and medical controls. The goal was to determine a ratio that is accurate for detecting a biliary leak.

Explorative laparotomy revealed an obstruction of the afferent limb caused by an intestinal loop around a Jackson-Pratt (JP) drain. Removal of the drain resolved the obstruction which led to a significant improvement of the patient’s clinical state.

2009年11月1日 · The most useful documented report in serous fluid testing describes detection of biliary leaks in Jackson-Pratt drain fluid, in which a drain fluid-to-serum ratio 45 is 100% sensitive and...

Post-cholecystectomy patients generally have a drain in place (particularly a Jackson Pratt [JP] drain) and may undergo bilirubin testing on the drain fluid as an objective assessment of a bile leak. A body fluid/serum bilirubin ratio of greater than 5 in a JP drain fluid is highly sensitive and specific for bile leak.(3)

2020年1月14日 · Jackson Pratt drain fluid-to-serum bilirubin concentration ratio for the diagnosis of bile leaks. Gastrointest.Endosc., 71 (1). Retrieved from https://hsrc.himmelfarb.gwu.edu/smhs_medicine_facpubs/2935

2023年10月23日 · A Jackson-Pratt (JP) drain is a surgical suction drain that gently draws fluid from a wound to help you recover after surgery. To use one, you’ll need to regularly empty a collection bulb that catches the fluid draining from your wound.

2016年1月26日 · Interpretive Guidelines: Bilirubin JP drain There are no established reference ranges for bilirubin levels from Jackson Pratt drains. However, recent studies suggest that a ratio of Jackson Pratt bilirubin concentration to serum bilirubin concentration greater than 5.0 is indicative of a bile leak.

2010年1月1日 · We performed this study to evaluate JP drain fluid-to-serum bilirubin level ratio in patients with bile leaks documented by ERCP, as well as in both surgical and medical controls. The goal was to determine a ratio that is accurate for detecting a biliary leak.
