Official title
A Study of the Efficacy of Oral Nutritional Supplementation to Reduce Postoperative Complications Associated With Pancreatic Surgery
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a single center, open label, randomized trial, involving 150 patients undergoing pancreatic surgery. Patients will be randomized at the time of enrollment to receive from 5-7 days of ONS supplementation combined with resistance training and nutritional education compared to standard of care, consisting of nutritional education alone. This proof of concept study is intended to demonstrate the ability of pre-habilitation to improve patient-related outcomes following pancreatic surgery, specifically postoperative complications. The rationale for using the designated oral nutrient supplementation is to preserve muscle mass, and decrease weight loss.
