Objective To explore clinical effect of enteral nutrition (EN) through nasojejunal tube in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods The clinical and pathological data of 76 patients with SAP who met the inclusion criteria and treated in the Third People’s Hospital of Henan Province from June 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively collected. According to the nutritional support therapy adopted in the course of treatment, the patients were divided into an EN group (n=44) and a parenteral nutrition group (PN group, n=32), the patients in the EN group were given the EN through the nasojejunal tube and the patients in the PN group were given the routine PN. The APACHE Ⅱ and SOFA scores, nutritional status, and immune function were observed before the treatment and on week 2 after the treatment in the two groups.Results There were no significant differences in the general data of the gender, age, body mass index, etc. between the two groups (P>0.050). ① The score of APACHEⅡ or SOFA score on week 2 after the treatment in both groups was significantly lower than that before the treatment (P<0.050), which in the EN group was significantly lower than that in the PN group on week 2 after the treatment (P<0.050). ② The levels of albumin and prealbumin were increased significantly and the hemoglobin level was decreased (P<0.050) on week 2 after the treatment as compared with those before the treatment in the two groups (P<0.050), which in the EN group were significantly higher than those in the PN group on week 2 after the treatment (P<0.050). ③ The CD4, CD8, and CD4/CD8 and IgG, IgM, and IgA on week 2 after the treatment were significantly lower than those before the treatment in these two groups (P<0.050), which in the EN group were significantly higher than those in the PN group on week 2 after the treatment (P<0.050). ④ The levels of endotoxin, D-lactic acid, diamine oxidase, and serum high mobility group protein B1 on week 2 after the treatment were significantly lower than those before the treatment in the two groups (P<0.050), and which in the EN group were significantly lower than those of the PN group on week 2 after the treatment (P<0.050). ⑤ The complications rate in the EN group was significantly lower than that in the PN group [20.45% (9/44) versus 53.13% (17/32), χ2=8.786, P=0.003].Conclusion EN through nasojejunal tube has a good effect on patients with SAP, which is helpful to improve their immune and nutritional status.
