Objective: To evaluate if hypertriglyceridemia is a risk factor for severity in patients with acute pancreatitis in the Belen Hospital of Trujillo. Material and Methods: An analytical, observational, retrospective, case and control study was conducted during the period 2013 to 2016, Belen Hospital of Trujillo. We studied the records of 297 patients with acute pancreatitis; only 128 met the inclusion criteria. Of which the study population consisted of 64 randomly selected patients; it was divided into 2 groups: severe or mild acute pancreatitis. The information was stored in Excel and transferred to the SPSS 23.0 statistical software, proceeding to perform frequency analysis for the qualitative variables and measures of central tendency and dispersion for the quantitative variables; which were then presented in simple and double entry boxes, as well as relevant graphics Results: There were no significant differences regarding the variables age, gender, origin or hemoconcentration between patients with acute or severe pancreatitis. The frequency of hypertriglyceridemia in patients with severe acute pancreatitis 25%. The frequency of hypertriglyceridemia in patients with mild acute pancreatitis was 6%. Hypertriglyceridemia is a factor associated with severe acute pancreatitis with an odds ratio of 5 which was significant (p <0.05). Conclusions: Hypertriglyceridemia is a risk factor for severity in patients with acute pancreatitis in the Belen Hospital of Trujillo.
