First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at the energy needs of people who have surgery to remove part or all of the pancreas for a tumor. After such surgery, patients often have trouble eating enough and may need special nutrition. The study measures how many calories patients actually burn and compares that to standard formulas, to see if better nutrition plans can improve recovery and reduce complications.
