b) WBC more than 16000

d) BUN > 25 mg/dl

Ans )b

Correct Answer: b) WBC more than 16000

The BISAP score (Bedside Index for Severity in Acute Pancreatitis) is used to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis. It includes 5 components, one point each:

  1. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) > 25 mg/dL

  2. Impaired mental status (GCS < 15)

  3. Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS)

  4. Age > 60 years

  5. Pleural effusion on imaging

✅ WBC >16,000 is not directly part of the BISAP score, although it is a criterion within SIRS, which is part of BISAP.
