In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will present on Pancreatitis. We will discuss the pathophysiology, focusing on the inflammation of the pancreas, which can be acute or chronic, and its causes, including gallstones and alcohol use. The session will transition to a digital presentation focused on the clinical manifestations, such as severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Finally, we will review the diagnostic approach, highlighting blood tests for amylase and lipase, imaging studies like CT scans, and management strategies for Pancreatitis, emphasizing fluid resuscitation, pain management, and in severe cases, interventions to remove obstructions or necrotic tissue. Enjoy the lecture and support us below!
