Official Title: Moderate Versus Aggressive Fluid Therapy in Patient With Mild to Moderate Acute Pancratitis

Brief Summary: Fluid resuscitation for pancreatitis is recommended given evidence that hemoconcentration is associated with necrosis. However, there is insufficient evidence to support whether resuscitation should be moderate or aggressive. In this study the investigators aim to compare the clinical outcome associated with these strategies in a clinical randomized fashion to determine the optimal treatment of acute pancreatitis.
