BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is essential for a favorable outcome. Selection of patients requiring a dedicated multiphasic computed tomography (CT) scan remains a clinical challenge.
METHODS: In this cross-sectional diagnostic study conducted from 2016 to 2018, we compared the presentation of AMI patients admitted to an intestinal stroke center to patients with acute abdominal pain of another origin admitted to the emergency room (controls).
RESULTS: We included 137 patients-52 with AMI and 85 controls. Patients with AMI [median age: 65 years (interquartile range 55-74)] had arterial and venous AMI in 65% and 35% of cases, respectively. Relative to controls, AMI patients were significantly older, more likely to have risk factors or a history of cardiovascular disease, and more likely to present with sudden-onset and morphine-requiring abdominal pain, hematochezia, guarding, organ dysfunction, higher white blood cell and neutrophil counts, and higher plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin concentrations. On multivariate analysis, two independent factors were associated with the diagnosis of AMI: the sudden-onset (OR = 20, 95%CI 7-60, p < 0.001) and the morphine-requiring nature of the acute abdominal pain (OR = 6, 95%CI 2-16, p = 0.002). Sudden-onset and/or morphine-requiring abdominal pain was present in 88% of AMI patients versus 28% in controls (p < 0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the diagnosis of AMI was 0.84 (95%CI 0.77-0.91), depending on the number of factors.
CONCLUSIONS: Sudden onset and the need for morphine are suggestive of AMI in patients with acute abdominal pain and should prompt multiphasic CT scan including arterial and venous phase images for confirmation.
