Pancreatitis In Dogs

Chronic Pancreatitis in Dogs?

We just got home from the Vet, and my puppy was diagnosed with Chronic Pancreatitis. Has anyone had any experience with this? What should I expect?

Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas that can be either acute or chronic.
Causes of chronic pancreatitis are obesity,ingestion of excessive fat or other disease processes.
One point that should be understood is that pancreatitis is extremely painful.
Analgesics should always be used to treat the pain.
Options are butorphanol and meperidine.
An animal should be hospitalized when suffering from pancreatitis so they can maintain hydration without taking in anything mouth.
IV fluids with a potassium Supplement is usually given.Strict confinement with cage rest is also required.
Pancreatitis can be fatal without treatment. So make sure your puppy is getting all the supportive care necessary at this time.

The Characteristics of Pain in Chronic Pancreatitis $108.33 The experiments forming the basis for the present thesis used different methods to induce and assess experimental pain stimuli in both healthy subjects and in patients with chronic pancreatitis. Furthermore in attempt to improve the pain models a multimodal and multitissue testing approach was successfully applied in these patients. Patients suffering from chronic pancreatitis are thought to have peripheral neural alterations and central changes in the pain system. One hypothesis is that the noxious activity in patients leads to peripheral, spinal and supraspinal changes in the pain system. We found generalized hypoalgesia to experimental visceral and somatic stimulations, but also evidence for central sensitization and cortical reorganisation. The findings suggest that activation and modulation of central mechanisms is fundamental in pancreatic pain. This may be related to changes in the balance between central hyperexcitability and pain modulating pathways. The findings of the present thesis may have clinical implications. Drugs which exert effects on the central nervous system or a combination of different drugs with targets in the central nervous system should be tested.
