In the first of a 2-parter on pancreatic disease, we're talking all about managing pancreatitis patients.

Pancreatitis is the most common pancreatic disease we see in practice. These patients are often severely unwell and risk developing complications like SIRS and MODS, and need intensive nursing care.

In episode 57 of the Medical Nursing Podcast, we'll look at what pancreatitis is, how it affects our patients, and how we treat it - as well as three things you can do as a vet nurse to give even better care to your own pancreatitis patients.
