Nutritional strategies for acute pancreatitis are evolving. Early enteral nutrition is preferred for severe cases, while early oral refeeding shows promise for mild acute pancreatitis.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Nutritional Science
- Clinical Medicine
Context:
- Nutritional management of acute pancreatitis has undergone significant shifts.
- Historically, parenteral nutrition was common, but enteral nutrition is now favored for severe cases.
- Recent evidence supports early oral refeeding for mild acute pancreatitis.
Purpose:
- To review current understanding of nutritional therapy in acute pancreatitis.
- To discuss the evolution of nutritional concepts in managing acute pancreatitis.
- To explore future directions in nutritional treatment for acute pancreatitis.
Summary:
- Early enteral nutrition has largely replaced parenteral nutrition in severe acute pancreatitis.
- Emerging research indicates that early oral refeeding may be the optimal nutritional approach for mild acute pancreatitis.
- This review synthesizes existing knowledge and anticipates future developments in the field.
Impact:
- Provides an updated overview of nutritional management in acute pancreatitis.
- Highlights the shift towards early enteral and oral feeding strategies.
- Informs clinical practice and future research in pancreatitis nutrition.

Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
