چکیده
Statement of Need Pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) is a serious condition with multiple causes, including chronic pancreatitis (CP), pancreatic cancer (PC), cystic fibrosis, and gastrointestinal surgeries, among others. Although progress has been made in the understanding of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of CP and PC as relevant to the etiology of PEI, this information has not been disseminated widely; early diagnostic testing for CP, including pancreatic function testing, is underused; and early detection of PC often is not achieved. In addition, evidence-based recommendations for the treatment of CP are lacking, and recommendations for the treatment of PEI in PC lack detail. Finally, approved treatments for PEI have become available only recently, and only one of these has specific dosing guidelines for PEI in CP and pancreatectomy. Clinician education is needed to close these gaps.
