1 The Tokyo Guidelines for Cholangitis
KP Tsui UNITED CHRISTIAN HOSPITAL

2 Cholangitis Biliary infection associated with partial or complete obstruction of the biliary tree Diagnosis based on clinical findings, such as Charcot’s triad, with laboratory data and imaging findings

3 Charcot’s triad Fever Jaundice Abdominal pain

4 Reynold’s Pentad + Hypotension + Mental obtundation

Lai EC, Tam PC, Paterson IA, Ng MM, Fan ST, Choi TK, et al. Emergency surgery for severe acute cholangitis. The high-risk patients. Ann Surg 1990;211:55–9.

6 There was no standard criteria for the diagnosis and severity assessment

7 Tokyo guidelines Based on a systematic review of literature and consensus of experts at the International Consensus Meeting in Tokyo 2006

8 TG07 A. Clinical contest and clinical manifestations
History of biliary disease Fever and/or chills Jaundice Abdominal pain (RUQ or upper abdominal) B. Laboratory data 5. Evidence of inflammatory response 6. Abnormal liver function tests C. Imaging findings 7. Biliary dilatation, or evidence of an etiology (stricture, stone, stent etc) Suspected diagnosis 2 or more items in A Definite diagnosis Charcot’s triad (2+3+4) Two or more items in A + both items in B and item C Diagnostic criteria and severity assessment of acute cholangitis: Tokyo Guidelines. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Surg (2007) 14:52–58

9 B-5: abnormal WBC, raised CRP and other changes indicating inflammation
B-6: raised ALP, r-GTP (GGT), AST and ALT levels

10 Severity assessment criteria 2007
Mild (grade I): acute cholangitis which responds to the initial medical treatment

11 Moderate (grade II) acute cholangitis which does not respond to the initial medical treatment and is not accompanied by organ dysfunction

12 TG07 Severity assessment criteria
Grade III (severe) Associated with onset of dysfunction in at least one of the following organs/ systems 1. Cardiovascular dysfunction Hypotension requiring dopamine >=5ug/kg per min, or any dose of norepinephrine 2. Neurological dysfunction Disturbance of consciousness 3. Respiratory dysfunction PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 300 4. Renal dysfunction Oiguria, serum creatinine > 2.0mg/dl 5. Hepatic dysfunction PT-INR > 1.5 6. Hematological dysfunction Platelet count < /mm3

13 Because of new information, the Tokyo Guidelines Revision Committee was organized to develop the update Tokyo guidelines (TG13)

14 Multiple tertiary centers in Japan From Jan 2007 and July 2011
794 patients with cholangitis 794 patients with cholangitis (1) purulent biliary drainage (2) Clinical remission due to bile duct drainage (3) Remission achieved by antimicrobial thearpy alone in patients where the only site of infection was biliary tree

15 Revision of TG07 The diagnostic criteria was adjusted to achieve the highest sensitivity and specificity

16 TG07 A. Clinical contest and clinical manifestations
History of biliary disease Fever and/or chills Jaundice Abdominal pain (RUQ or upper abdominal) B. Laboratory data 5. Evidence of inflammatory response 6. Abnormal liver function tests C. Imaging findings 7. Biliary dilatation, or evidence of an etiology (stricture, stone, stent etc) Suspected diagnosis 2 or more items in A Definite diagnosis Charcot’s triad (2+3+4) Two or more items in A + both items in B and item C Diagnostic criteria and severity assessment of acute cholangitis: Tokyo Guidelines. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Surg (2007) 14:52–58

17 New diagnostic criteria and severity assessment of acute cholangitis in revised Tokyo guidelines. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci (2012) 19:548–556

18 TG13 diagnostic criteria
Systemic inflammation A-1. Fever +/- shaking chills A-2. Laboratory data: evidence of inflammatory response Cholestasis B-1. Jaundice B-2. Laboratory data: abnormal liver function tests C Imaging C-1. Biliary dilatation C-2. Evidence of etiology on imaging (stricture, stone, stent, etc) Suspected diagnosis: one item in A + one item in either B or C Definite diagnosis: one item in A, one item in B and one item in C New diagnostic criteria and severity assessment of acute cholangitis in revised Tokyo guidelines. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci (2012) 19:548–556

19 A-2: abnormal WBC, raised CRP and other changes indicating inflammation
B-2: raised ALP, r-GTP (GGT), AST and ALT levels

20 New diagnostic criteria and severity assessment of acute cholangitis in revised Tokyo guidelines. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci (2012) 19:548–556

21 With suspected diagnosis, early biliary drainage and source control of infection can be provided

22 Formulation of new severity assessment
TG07 insufficient in separating Grade I and Grade II Need 24 hour observation period Definition of grade II ambiguous Only assessed after observation for initial treatment courses

23 New diagnostic criteria and severity assessment of acute cholangitis in revised Tokyo guidelines. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci (2012) 19:548–556

24 TG13 Severity assessment criteria
Grade III (severe) Associated with onset of dysfunction in at least one of the following organs/ systems 1. Cardiovascular dysfunction Hypotension requiring dopamine >=5ug/kg per min, or any dose of norepinephrine 2. Neurological dysfunction Disturbance of consciousness 3. Respiratory dysfunction PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 300 4. Renal dysfunction Oiguria, serum creatinine > 2.0mg/dl 5. Hepatic dysfunction PT-INR > 1.5 6. Hematological dysfunction Platelet count < /mm3

25 Grade II ( moderate ) Any 2 of the following
1. Abnormal WBC count (>12000/mm3, < 4000/mm3) 2. High fever (>=39C) 3. Age (>=75 years) 4. Hyperbilirubinemia (total bilirubin >=5 mg/ dl) 5. Hypoalbuminemia (< STD x 0.7)

26 Grade I (mild) - Does not meet criteria for Grade II or Grade III at initial diagnosis

38 No significant difference in clinical outcome was observed in patients of different severity grades
Conclusion: The TG07 are more reliable than Charcot's triad for the diagnosis of acute cholangitis albeit with limited prognostic values.

39 Compliance 60842 acute cholangitis patients from the Japanese administrative database associated with the Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) system. Grade III: 7.6 ± 2.1 Grade II: 6.5 ± 3.0 Grade I: 2.9 ± 0.9, p < 0.001 (score 0 = 0% to score 10 = 100%) Evaluation of compliance with the Tokyo Guidelines for the management of acute cholangitis based on the Japanese administrative database associated with the Diagnosis Procedure Combination system.

40 Improved prognosis of in-hospital mortality with odds ratio of 0
Improved prognosis of in-hospital mortality with odds ratio of among patients with high compliance with the TG07

41 Take home message The Tokyo guidelines are more sensitive than Charcot’s triad for diagnosis of cholangitis TG13 produces a new standard for diagnosis, severity grading and management of acute cholangitis Awaiting further validation on TG13
