Objective: The purpose of the study was to determine that the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio is a predictive factor of severity in patients with acute pancreatitis. Material and methods: A case-control study was conducted, with a sample size of 148 patients, who met the selection criteria, which were distributed in the groups, 37 patients with severe acute pancreatitis (cases) and 111 with acute non-severe pancreatitis (controls), It was evaluated that the value of the CRP/albumin ratio> 16.3 as a severity factor in the Víctor Lazarte Echegaray Hospital, period 2014-2018, the difference of both groups was made with the Chi square test, T-student, Odds ratio. Results: The 37 patients with severe acute pancreatitis, 54.1% are women and 45.9% are men, with p> 0.05 telling us that sex did not significantly influence this entity. The ages with the highest CRP/albumin ratio> 16.3 and severe acute pancreatitis were patients between 18-35 years. On the other hand, within comorbidities (obesity, blood hypertension, diabetes mellitus type II) and nosocomial infections (p = 0.97) had not statistical significance associated with severe acute pancreatitis. The CRP/albumin ratio> 16.3 occurred in 80% (30 cases) of patients with severe acute pancreatitis and 61.3% (68 controls) of patients with acute non-severe pancreatitis, OR: 2.7 (CI = 1.094 - 6.713), X = 4.87 and a p <0.05. Conclusions: In patients with clinical symptoms of acute pancreatitis with a CRP/albumin ratio> 16.3, it is 2.7 times more likely to present its severe form. Prolonged hospital stay and nosocomial infections aren’t associated with severe acute pancreatitis.
