Haemorrhage upper gastrointestinal

British Society of Gastroenterology Endoscopy Committee (2002) Non-variceal upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage guidelines. Cut 51 (Suppl IV) iv1-iv6. Available at http //www.bsg.org.uk/pdf word docs/nonvar3.pdf [Accessed 7 July 2008],... [Pg.6]

NSAIDs are well known for causing upper gastrointestinal ulceration and haemorrhage [4]. Ibuprofen (<1600 mg/day) is associated with the lowest risk [2, 34]. [Pg.183]

Upper gastrointestinal (GI) haemorrhages comprise any bleeding occurring between the nasopharynx and the duodenojejunal fold (Treitz s arch), i.e. proximal to the duodenojejunal flexure. Such haemorrhages are especially problematic in cases where liver disease is also present. [Pg.347]

Upper gastrointestinal bleeding may be either chronic or acute. It becomes manifest as severe or slight haemorrhages of arterial, venous or capillary origin, (s. tab. 19.3) Elimination of the blood is effected by vomiting or in the stool. [Pg.348]

Spontaneous haemostasis Some 60-80% of all upper gastrointestinal haemorrhages cease spontaneously. Early diagnosis with simultaneous stabilization of the circulation facilitates such spontaneous haemostasis without further therapeutic measures being called for. In 10-15% of cases, the bleeding persists. [Pg.350]

Gastrolavage using a double-lumen tube may be of both diagnostic and therapeutic value in upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage. Endobronchial intubation is strongly recommended for disturbances of consciousness. [Pg.351]

A possible spontaneous haemostasis, which is found without active therapy in about half the cases of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, should on no account encourage the assumption of a passive approach with the postponement of suitable therapeutic procedures. There is an enormous danger of massive renewed haemorrhage as well as of the development of complications within a few hours following spontaneous haemostasis, (s. fig. 19.12)... [Pg.351]

The basic treatment of bleeding oesophageal varices is carried out under intensive care conditions. It essentially corresponds to the procedures for upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, (s. pp 350, 351) The therapy has three main objectives ... [Pg.355]

Etoricoxib, lumiracoxib and rofecoxib caused a slight 8% to 15% increase in the INR in response to warfarin, whereas celecoxib and parecoxib had no effect. However, raised INRs accompanied by bleeding, particularly in the elderly, have been attributed to the use of waHarin and celecoxib or rofecoxib in other reports. In addition, in a case-control study in patients taking warfarin, the use of celecoxib or rofecoxib was associated with an increased risk of hospitalisation for upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, which was of a similar magnitude to that seen with non-selective NSAIDs. [Pg.428]

Moreover, in a ease-control study, patients taking warfarin and admitted to hospital with an upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage were signifi-eantly more likely to be also taking rofecoxib (odds ratio 2.4)2 Note that rofeeoxib has generally been withdrawn because of adverse cardiovascular effects. [Pg.429]

Embolization of massively bleeding duodenal ulcers constituted 5% of endoscopically treated duodenal ulcers and as little as 0.6% of all cases with upper gastrointestinal bleeding who underwent emergency endoscopy in one large series. Contrast extravasation was demonstrated in only half of these cases. Embolization did however induce haemostasis in 90% of cases (Toyoda et al. 1995). Prophylactic embolization of the GDA is sometimes performed with success (as in this series) even when no angiographic abnormality is demonstrated despite a proven endoscopic source of haemorrhage. [Pg.250]

Acute haemorrhagic erosive gastritis was diagnosed by endoscopy in 74 of 400 consecutive patients admitted with upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage. A history of antecedent consumption of salicylate ingestion was obtained in 47%. In some cases there were associated gastric ulcers, sometimes multiple (92 ). [Pg.69]
