Overview

All diabetic patients with acute pancreatitis should be intensively treated and monitored in spite of the fact that 75–80% have mild-to-moderate disease. This is due to difficult diagnosis and problems with standard monitoring due to diabetes and its complications. Especially intensive rehydration and subsequent fluid mobilisation can be difficult. Also glucose control and impaired gut motility can cause difficulties in diabetic patients with acute pancreatitis. Nutrition support should be implemented according to severity of disease and insulin infused to control glycaemia.

Key words:
acute pancreatitis – diabetes mellitus – nutrition – fluid resuscitation
