Herein, a relatively rare case is reported in which a knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) health education model was applied in a young female patient with metabolic syndrome (MS) and acute pancreatitis (AP), with a satisfactory effect. The purpose of this report is to provide a reference for a viable health education program in clinical practice for intervention of MS with concurrent AP in the absence of clinical trials. The patient's unhealthy lifestyle led to obesity, diabetes mellitus, severe fatty liver, hyperlipidemia, and AP. We used a KAP health education model in a nursing intervention and evidence-based multidisciplinary cooperation to develop a personalized diet, exercise plan, education plan, and continuous care of the patient after discharge from the hospital. Within 2 months, the patient achieved weight loss, stable blood lipids, controlled blood sugar levels, and decreased glycated hemoglobin level from 9.0% to 5.4%. This KAP-based health education model has clinical importance as an intervention for lifestyle modification in patients with MS and AP. This approach can be adopted to help other patients to effectively control and prevent the recurrence of diseases.
