- The report discussed that the condition was one generally treated by surgeons, as an exploration of the bile duct and excision of gallstones.
- Reynolds and Dargan recognized that septic shock and mental status changes portended a poor outcome.[2] [3] [4] [5]
- The addition of these two symptoms changed the name from Charcot's triad to Reynold's pentad.
