Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of ear ly total parenteral nutrition on acute sodium-taurocholat-induced panc reatitis in rats. Total parenteral nutrition did not change the surviv al rate, serum amylase, calcium or liver transaminase level on the deg ree of pancreatic damage, but reduced serum acid phosphatase and lacta te dehydrogenase levels. Hyperglycemia occurred during the use of tota l parenteral nutrition. Total parenteral nutrition is not harmful in t he course of acute experimental pancreatitis, and could be used with f ew side effects.
