Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Surgery - Nasogastric Tube Feeding
Other interventions - Conventional Nutritonal Management

Experimental: Nasogastric Tube Feeding - Patients who are to have NTF will receive enteral nutrition within 6 hours after randomisation via a nasogastric tube placed into the stomach. A commercially available low fat semi-elemental feed (Peptisorb®, Nutricia Clinical NZ) will be used. The caloric target will be 2000 kcal per day. Enteral tube feeding will be commenced at a rate of 30 mL/h and increased gradually until 100 mL/h over 24-48 h.

Active comparator: Conventional Nutritional Management - Patients who are to have CNM will be on nil-by-mouth regimen until they either develop signs of severe AP (in which case enteral tube feeding will be introduced) or the signs of AP mitigate,in which case clear liquids (as tolerated) followed by oral food (as tolerated) will be introduced.
