Diagnosing chronic pancreatitis remains challenging. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is utilized to evaluate pancreatic disease. Abnormal pancreas function test is considered the “non-histologic” gold standard for chronic pancreatitis. We derived a prediction model for abnormal endoscopic PFT (ePFT) by enriching EUS findings with patient demographic and pancreatitis behavioral risk characteristics. Demographics, behavioral risk characteristics, EUS findings, and peak bicarbonate results were collected from patients evaluated for pancreatic disease. Abnormal ePFT was defined as peak bicarbonate <75 mEq/L. We fit a logistic regression model and converted it to a risk score system. The risk score was validated using 1,000 bootstrap simulations. A total of 176 patients were included; 61% were female with median age 48 (interquartile range 38, 57). Abnormal ePFT rate was 39.2% (69/176). Four variables formulated the risk score: alcohol or smoking status, number of parenchymal abnormalities, number of ductal abnormalities, and calcifications. Abnormal ePFT occurred in 10.7% with scores 4 or less versus 92.0% scoring 20 or greater. The model c-statistic was 0.78 (95% CI: 0.71, 0.85). Number of EUS pancreatic duct and parenchymal abnormalities, presence of calcification, and smoking/alcohol status were predictive of abnormal ePFT. This simple model has good discrimination for ePFT results.
