Brief Summary:
Malnutrition and loss of muscle mass are common in patients with chronic pancreatitis. However, there is only limited data on nutritional treatment. In this study, malnourished patients with chronic pancreatitis will receive an intensified nutritional therapy to improve nutritional status. The aim of the study is that malnutrition in patients with chronic pancreatitis can be successfully treated.
Detailed Description:
Malnutrition and sarcopenia are common complications in chronic pancreatitis leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore nutritional therapy can be considered imperative. However, there is limited evidence on the treatment of malnutrition in patients with chronic pancreatitis. This study aims to investigate the effect of an intensified nutritional therapy on nutritional status in malnourished patients with chronic pancreatitis. By testing feasibility of this intensified therapy valuable recommendations for future treatment of malnutrition in patients with chronic pancreatitis can be derived.
