Abstract:
Acute pancreatitis with high decomposition and metabolic state, is one of the common acute abdominal pain in children. The patients are vulnerable to malnutrition during the illness. Reasonable nutrition therapy has an important role in pancreatitis management. Compared with parenteral nutrition,enteral nutrition,especially early enteral nutrition within 48 hours,can maintain the gut barrier function,reduce the incidence of enterogenic infection and multiple organ function failure,shorten length of hospital stay and re-duce the hospitalization expenses. Enteral nutrition should be initiated first,if feasible. Enteral nutrition,either by nasojejunal tube or via nasogastric tube,is believed to be safe and effective.
