GI RISKS
PUD: NSAID-Induced
Low = 0 // moderate = 1-2 // high > 2 Risk factors
GI Risks:
h/o of PUD (+ complications)
Age > 60 years
Concomitant Medications
anticoags / corticosteroids / other NSAIDS (includes baby aspirin)
contributing factors:
smoking / CVD / H. Pylori
CV Risks
for PUD: NSAID-Induced
- *High Risk**
- *requirement for Low-dose Aspirin**
such as individuals with:
prior CV event
diabetes / HT
hyperlipidemia / obesity
Table for treating a patient with
NSAIDs
based on CV / GI Risk
Risk Factors for
PUD BLEEDING
Higher risk w/ poor prognosis:
> 60 y/o
Comorbid Conditions
HIGH Transfusion Requirements
ongoing blood loss
hypoVolemic Shock
prolonged PTT / increased INR
erratic mental status
may need aggressive intervention or ICU stay
Comparison Chart of DIFFERENT PUD’s
SRMD / NSAID / H. Pylori
RISK FACTORS
for SRMB PUD
Mechanical Ventilation > 48 hours
Coagulopathy
Platelets <50K // INR >1.5 // PTT> 2.5 normal
Liver Failure / Sepsis / GIB History
Major Surgery / ICU >7 days
HIGH-DOSE Corticosteroids (>250mg/d HC)
Severe Burns (>35% BSA)
traumatic Spinal / Head Injury
PROPHYLAXIS
for SRMB PUD
FLUID replacement -> restore mucosal blood flow
Intragastric pH > 4 = for mucosal protection
- *Pharmacotherapy**
- *anti-secratory** or Mucosal protectant
H2RA > PPI
by IV or PO route, make sure they can take PO first
only use PPI if
renal dysfunction develops thrombocytopenia or mental status changes while on H2Ra
GIB Treatment
PUD
correct fluid loss
Endoscopic intervention
IV PPI
LD is equivalent to 80mg omeprazole
then do 8mg/h continuously for 72 hours
- WHY NOT H2RA?*
- does NOT achieve* pH of 6
- does NOT PREVENT rebleeding / tachyphylaxis*
Signs & Symptoms of
PUD
Dyspepsia / Indigestion
Post-prandial Bleeding (bleeding after meals)
Abdominal fullness/bloating
Anorexia / weight loss / early satiety
N/V + Cramping/pain
PUD ALARM Symptoms
When to REFER TO MD
ANEMIA
- *Hematemesis**
- vomiting of blood*
Melena / Heme +pos+ stool
Anorexia / Weight Loss
SEVERE Upper Abdominal Pain
Causes / Risks of PUD
NSAID USE = #1
H. PYLORI = #2
50% of population has H.pylori, 10-15% develop PUD
SRMD / Stress Ulcer
Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome = ZES
gastrin-secreting tumor or hyperplasia of the islet cells in the pancreas resulting in recurrent peptic ulcers
Cigarette Smoking / Alcohol / Diet
Idiopathic / Radiation / Genetic Subtypes
MEDICATIONS = Steroids / bisphosphate / chemo / SSRI
