Abstract
Objective To appraise the safety and validity of early enteral nutrition on the course on treating severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods The clinical data of 71 patients with SAP were analyzed retrospectively. The album, prealbumin, TNF-β,CD4/CD8,IgG were observed. All the patients were randomly divided into two groups: enteral nutrition(EN)group for 36 patients and total parenteral nutrition(TPN)group for 35 patients. Results Fourteen days after treatment,CD4/CD8 and IgG in EN group were significantly increased than those in TPN group(P＜0.05),and prealbumin level in EN group significantly elevated(P＜0.05)and was higher than that in TPN group(P＜0.05).After treatment,TNF-α level in EN group significantly depressed(P＜0.05)and was lower than that in TPN group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Early enteral nutrition is safe and valid, and can promote albumin synthesis and prealbumin levels to improve their nutrition in patients with SAP, and may build-up the barrier of enteric mucosa to prevent bacterial shift, reduce systemic inflammatory reaction and improve its prognosis. Key words: Pancreatitis; Enteral nutrition
