MIld to MOderate Acute Pancreatitis: Early naSogastric Tube Feeding Compared With pAncreas Rest (MIMOSA) (MIMOSA)

January 5, 2013 updated by: Max Petrov, University of Auckland, New Zealand

Early Enteral Tube Feeding Compared With Pancreas Rest in Patients With Acute Pancreatitis: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Pain relapse during oral refeeding occurs in at least one-fifth of patients with acute pancreatitis. The study hypothesis is that early administered enteral tube feeding might reduce a risk of pain relapse and shorten the length of hospital stay in patients with acute pancreatitis.
