Welcome to this educational video presented by GlobalCastMD and Cincinnati Children's Hospital, where we explore the diagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis in children. In collaboration with experts from the Pancreas Care Center, Dr. Maisam A. Abu-El-Haija, Dr. Andrew Trout, and Dr. Juan Gurría, we break down the key points of this critical condition.

Key Topics Covered:

• What is Acute Pancreatitis?: Learn about the inflammation of the pancreas, its causes, and symptoms such as intense upper abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and fever.

• Diagnosis: We discuss the criteria for diagnosing acute pancreatitis, including the use of ultrasound, CT, and MRI.

• Treatment: Fluid resuscitation, the importance of early enteral nutrition, and the use of Lactated Ringer's (LR) solution for better outcomes. Plus, why antibiotics are no longer needed in most cases.

This video is part of our series on Pancreatic Pathologies by the Pancreas Care Center at Cincinnati Children's. Stay tuned for more insights to improve child health worldwide!
