26
Q
  1. What are the common complications of peptic ulcer disease?
27
Q
  1. What is the most common complication of peptic ulcer disease?
A

Bleeding peptic ulcer.

28
Q
  1. What are the typical presentations of a bleeding peptic ulcer?
29
Q
  1. What is the first step in managing a bleeding peptic ulcer?
A

Secure IV line and resuscitate the patient.

30
Q
  1. What is the role of endoscopy in managing bleeding peptic ulcers?
A

Injection with epinephrine

31
Q
  1. What is the typical presentation of a perforated peptic ulcer?
A

Acute abdomen with severe

32
Q
  1. What are the stages of perforation in peptic ulcer disease?
A

Stage of chemical peritonitis

33
Q
  1. What diagnostic tests are used for perforated peptic ulcers?
34
Q
  1. What is the treatment for perforated peptic ulcers?
A

Secure IV line

35
Q
  1. What percentage of patients with PUD develop gastric outlet obstruction?
36
Q
  1. What are the typical symptoms of gastric outlet obstruction?
37
Q
  1. What is the treatment for gastric outlet obstruction?
A

Nasogastric suction

38
Q
  1. What is intractable or nonhealing peptic ulcer?
A

A peptic ulcer that does not heal despite standard treatment.

39
Q
  1. What is the role of H. pylori in peptic ulcer disease?
A

H. pylori is responsible for the majority of cases of PUD.

40
Q
  1. What is the role of NSAIDs in peptic ulcer disease?
A

NSAIDs are a major risk factor for PUD due to their effect on mucosal defenses.

41
Q
  1. What is Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES)?
A

A condition caused by gastrinoma leading to excessive acid secretion and peptic ulcers.

42
Q
  1. What is the role of serum gastrin testing in PUD?
A

To diagnose Zollinger-Ellison syndrome or other conditions causing hypergastrinemia.

43
Q
  1. What is the role of endoscopy in diagnosing PUD?
A

Endoscopy is the gold standard for visualizing ulcers and obtaining biopsies.

44
Q
  1. What is the role of H. pylori testing in PUD?
A

To confirm H. pylori infection

45
Q
  1. What is the role of PPI (proton pump inhibitors) in PUD treatment?
A

PPIs reduce acid secretion

46
Q
  1. What is the role of angiography in managing bleeding PUD?
A

Angiography can be used for embolization to stop bleeding in cases where endoscopy fails.

47
Q
  1. What is the role of surgery in PUD?
A

Surgery is used for complications like perforation

48
Q
  1. What is the typical acid secretion pattern in duodenal ulcers?
A

Q
  1. What is the typical acid secretion pattern in gastric ulcers?
A

Variable acid secretion

50
Q
  1. What is the role of histology in diagnosing PUD?
A

Histology helps differentiate between benign ulcers and malignant lesions
