Common questions
What does Acute Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding Management do?
Use after initial resuscitation to choose drug therapy and endoscopy window, and to add variceal-specific steps when portal hypertension is the cause.
How is the result calculated?
Restrictive transfusion Hb < 70 g/L. Non-variceal → high-dose IV PPI + endoscopy < 24 h. Variceal → vasoactive drug + prophylactic antibiotics + endoscopy < 12 h. Undetermined severe → empiric somatostatin + PPI.
Is this a substitute for clinical judgement?
No. All results are decision-support only, for licensed clinicians. They must be individualized to the whole patient and the latest guideline version.
