Pancreatic Surgery • Step 2
Nutritional Optimisation is a focused activity inside the Multidisciplinary Planning phase of pancreatic surgery under Dr. Murshidul Arefin's care. This page explains what the task involves, why it matters for your outcome, and how it links to the rest of your pancreatic surgery journey at Popular Medical College Hospital, Dhanmondi.
During the multidisciplinary planning phase, "Nutritional Optimisation" is performed by the hepatobiliary team using clear, protocolised steps. Patients receive a written summary of the findings, the next decision points, and what is expected of them before progressing to the next stage of the multidisciplinary planning pathway.
Nutritional Optimisation is one of four tasks in the multidisciplinary planning phase, alongside Tumour Board Review, Resectability Assessment, Neoadjuvant Decision. The complete journey runs through four phases — see the pancreatic surgery hub for the full timeline and contact options.
