Demographic characteristics, clinical presentation, laboratory findings and radiological data of the patients were recorded within 24 h of admission. The severity of AP was assessed using PANC-3 and APACHE-II scores. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of both the scoring systems were calculated and compared.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 80 patients with AP were included in the study. Most of the patients were in their early thirties (31\u201335 years), and alcohol consumption was the leading aetiological factor. The PANC-3 scores exhibited a strong predictive accuracy for severity of AP. There was excellent agreement between the PANC-3 and APACHE-II scores (\u03ba =0.8855). Sensitivity (94.1% vs. 88.2%), PPV (94.1% vs. 93.8%) and NPV (98.4% vs. 96.9%) were higher in APACHE-II, but specificity was equivalent between both systems (both 98.4%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Using PANC-3 scores, we were able to accurately predict the severity of AP in a tertiary care hospital setting.
