Benefits of Nutrition Supportpp
• Improve alertnessImprove alertness
• Improve ability to comply with therapy
M d• May decrease nausea
• Decrease hopelessness and feeling of abandonment
• Enhance self care post surgery
• Improve lean body mass, resting energy expenditure, decrease inflammatory cytokines

Management: “Alice”Management: Alice
Pancreatic cancer requires multifaceted approachPancreatic cancer requires multifaceted approach. Frequently, patient are newly diagnosed with diabetes, but still require high calories and protein. q g p
Use nutritional supplements that are rich in protein, low in simple sugars and adequate to avoid further weight losssimple sugars and adequate to avoid further weight loss.
Manage bowel-constipation from narcotic ileus, diarrheafrom treatment nausea painfrom treatment, nausea, pain.
55
M t “F d”Management: “Fred”
Inflammation of the esophagus requires dramatic change: soft foods, high calorie and protein enriched beverages, slower eating, calorie monitoring.
Frequently patients complain that water burns. Use thicken liquids, crush medications when possible. Patients cannot h l if t iti i i d t H it li ti fheal if nutrition is inadequate. Hospitalization for dehydration, malnutrition is frequent in this group.
