This book is an accessible, evidence-based, succinct and practical reference for those providing hands-on care to patients with acute pancreatitis. It represents the most updated results of clinical science and offers the frameworks that underpin the disease and its management. The first part of the book presents the latest clinical science and illustrates a clear indication of what is known, and what are the gaps in our understanding of the disease. The second part provides practical clinical management guidelines. The chapters are designed to bring recommendations, practical points to facilitate navigation, easy access of knowledge, and highlights key decision points and options.
Acute Pancreatitis - A Practical Guide for Clinicians is relevant to not only clinicians involved in patient care but medical, nursing and dietitian students, surgical and gastroenterology researchers, companies and agencies.
The book comprehensively covers acute pancreatitis, associating it with local pancreatic complications, systemic inflammation and organ failures, also providing management algorithms. This practical reference book is an introduction to disease management, indicating why topics addressed in each chapter are essential, providing valuable guidance for day-to-day treatment by professionals globally.

After a series of clinical positions he undertook a PhD in pancreatology at the University of Auckland, before developing a formal research career in surgical science. He remains a registered medical practitioner with his main activity focused on undertaking applied and translational surgical research during which he has developed a diverse array of interests and skills. He established the Applied Surgical and Metabolism Laboratory at the UoA to provide dedicated basic science facilities for surgical trainees to undertake doctoral level research. A major thematic research focus has been understanding the onset of critical illness and multiple organ failure as typified by acute pancreatitis. Anthony has a particular interest in translational medicine. He has served as the Preclinical Director, Medical Director, CEO and CTO for a range of biotechnology companies, during which time he has supervised a wide range of clinical and preclinical basic science studies.
