Abstract

Introduction

Jabalpur Prognostic Scoring System (JPSS), a simple scoring system, was developed to prognosticate the outcome for perforated peptic ulcer (PPU) in 2003 when there was no dedicated Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) in the authors’ institution. It is based on six easily available parameters, namely patient’s age, perforation-operation interval, mean systolic blood pressure, heart rate, serum creatinine and the presence of comorbid illness. Its accuracy has since been validated by many authors and has been found to be comparable with other prognostic scoring systems. Availability of SICU in the last one decade has prompted us to re-assess the utility and validity of the JPSS in the current age.

Methods

Prospectively collected JPSS data of 214 consecutive patients (prospective group, PG), who underwent Graham’s patch omentopexy closure of a PPU, was compared with the JPSS cohort of 2003 (original group, OG). Sensitivity and specificity were calculated, and accuracy was measured using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.

Results

The PG had 214 patients, while the OG had 140 patients. PG had significantly more women patients, and a shorter hospital stay, otherwise, both groups were comparable. Postoperative mortality and morbidity, both overall and in different JPSS classes were statistically similar. Overall accuracy of JPSS in PG was 77% with a cutoff of 11 as compared to the OG where these values were 92% and 9 respectively.

Conclusion

JPSS continues to be effective and accurate in predicting the outcome of patients with PPU in the current age.
