Popis: | Upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, common problem worldwide, had an estimated annual incidence of 40-150 cases per 100 000 populations. Several scores are validated for risk stratification than can aid clinical decision for urgent intervention and triage patients to in-hospital vs out-of-hospital management. Two most widely validated score were Glasgow Blatchford Score (GBS) and Rockwall score. A retrospective analysis in more than 400 000 patients with NVUGIB reported an increase mortality in patients who underwent endoscopy after 24 hours. Cyanoacrylate (CYA) Spray is a spray technique that can be used as an alternative method in emergent settings for uncontrollable GI bleeding. |
