Acute Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage
Definition and Terminology
I> Upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage
(UGIH)
: Bleeding upon the ligament of treitz
•Hematemesis : vomiting for fresh blood
shown active/ massive bleeding
Acute Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage
Definition and Terminology (cont)
•Coffee ground: blood+gastric secretion
shown resent subside UGIH
•Melena: Hb+acid= acid hematin, since 50cc
of blood 1000cc of blood caused melena
persist For 5-7 days, and occult blood can be
positive for 21 days
Acute Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage
II> Lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage
(LGIH): bleeding below ligament of Treitz
Hematochezia: means fresh blood, clot,
or current jelly stool
Divisions of the stomach (From Zuidema G: Shackelford’s

Why we have to learn …..
Over all mortality rate is still high
in upper GI hemorrhage,
about 5-8%

Blood supply to the stomach and duodenum with anatomical relationships to the spleen
and pancreas. The stomach is reflected cephalad. (From Zuidema G: Shackelford’s
Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 4th ed. Philadelphia, WB Saunders, 1995.)
NERVE SUPPY TO THE STOMACH
GASTRIC
GLAND
Risk Factor for Peptic Ulcer Hemorrhage
Aspirin (ASA) : since 1899
Non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug ( N-SAID) :
has both Cyclooxygenase-1 and 2:
COX - 1(house keeping enzyme) & COX 2( Coenzyme)
Selective COX- 2 inhibitor: 1999
EX: Clelcoxib, Rofecoxib
COX theory
ASA – inhibit COX- 1, decrease Thromboxane&
decrease prostaglandin caused of lost of protection
for gastric mucosa, and decrease hemostasis
N-SAID- inhibits both COX-1 and COX-2 :results
like in ASA user. Increase risk of complication in PU
patients =6.1 (relative risk) and in recent GI bleeding
patients= 13.5 (relative risk)
Selective COX-2 inhibitor: results more protection
for gastric mucosal barrier, and hemostasis

INTENSIVE MONITORING
INITIAL ASSESSMENT
** Initial
evaluation and treatment of patients
with acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage
UPPER GI HEMORRHAGE
How should surgeons deal with and
step up this complicated problem ?
Initial Assessment
Initial Resuscitation
Critical care and monitoring
Definite diagnosis and management
Evidence based critical care, Paul Ellis Marick , 2001
I. Initial Assessment
A: General assessment and Scoring to
categorize the patients
- Active or ongoing/ massive/ continue/ or
intermittent bleeding
B:Hx and PE (Cirrhotic patient or Non cirrhotic
patient )
C:NG tube should be inserted to confirm the
level of bleeding
A. General Assessment
Hemodynamic assessment : BP, pulse, postural
changes, peripheral perfusion
The presence of co morbid diseases
Estimation of blood loss by nasogastric tube
intubation and hemodynamic response to fluid
challenge
** remarked that
- to use 2 L of crystalloid to stabilize v/s , blood
loss is about 15-30%
- If BP raises but fall again, blood loss is about
30-40%
- If BP continues to fall, blood loss is more than
40%
Category of Hypovolemic Shock
Class I:Impending (< 10% of blood volumn
loss)
no symptom,pulse > 90-100 , BP normal
Class II: mild (10-20% of blood volumn loss)
fainting, pallor, cool skin, BP drop, pulse>120
Class III:modurate(20-30% of blood volumn
loss): urine output -oliguria
Class IV: severe ( >40% of blood volumn loss)
may caused unconcious and cardiac arrest
Category and scoring of patients
To evaluate and predict further ulcer
hemorrhage
To select the method of management
“ It is dictated by the rate of bleeding”
Clinical bleeding
1.Trace heme-positive stools and without severe
anemia ( OPD) of cases
2.Visible blood, coffee ground, melena ( IPD/
further evaluation)
1+ 2 = 80 % of cases
Fleischer D, et al Gastroenterology, 1983
3.Persistent or massive bleeding / referred due to
rebleeding with hemodynamic instability (ICU)
** Massive/ ongoing bleeding is defined as loss of
> 30% of estimated blood volume or bleeding
required blood transfusion > 6 U/ 24 hours
Scoring to categorize the patients

High Risk ~Criteria
Host Factors
- Age >60yr
- Co-morbid conditions e.g. renal failure, cirrhosis,
cardiovascular disease, COPD
- Hemodynamic instability; mod to severe shock
- Coagulopathy include drug-related
Bleeding character ; Active continue red blood
from NG after irriagtion and red blood per
rectum
Patient course; massive blood transfution> 4-6
units to maintain Hb in 24 hr , re-bleeding in 72
hr , return to have hemodynamic instability

A: General assessment and Scoring to
categorize the patients
- Active or ongoing/ massive/ continue/ or
intermittent bleeding
B: Hx and PE (Cirrhotic patient or Non cirrhotic
patient )
C: NG tube should be inserted to confirm the
level of bleeding
C. NG tube placement
Should perform in all UGI hemorrhage
to confirmation that it is the upper GI
bleeding , monitoring of bleeding and ,
decompressed the stomach
No report that it may potentiate bleeding in
case of esophageal varices, just careful in
patients who had severe coagulopathy.

II. Initial Resuscitation
How to do for good resuscitation?
When will we give blood transfusion ?
Which medication will be used?
Large- bore intravenous lines or central lines
NG tube aspiration (by hand) to decompress clot
in stomach
Volume expansion with colloid or crystalloid
Transfusion of blood immediately if patient has
hemodynamically unstable
* Blood products are the most efficient
volume expanders
** It take about 72 hours for Hct to reach its
nadir; therefore, a normal or moderate low Hct
does not exclude significant bleeding
*** Conversely, minimally falling of Hct also
represent fluid disequilibrium much rather than
continued bleeding
If patients have coagulopathy, they should be
corrected.
- PTT prolong > 1.5 times
- Platelet < 50,000/ mm3
- FFP should be given after 6 unit of PRC and plt
should add after 10 unit of PRC
Monitoring V/S, urine out put /hour
Airway protection in those who have alteration of
consciousness or endotracheal intubations may
facilitate to investigate and give treatment in these
patients
Recommendation for empiric
Acid- suppression therapy
Traditionally treated, even before the cause is
determined, with acid suppression therapy. Medications
are extremely safe, although the efficacy of this practice
has not been proven conclusively.
Kupfer, et al Gastroenterol Clin of North Amer, 2000
I.V. Proton pump inhibitor is more effective than
I.V. H 2 blocker in increasing intragastric pH
Vasopressin should not be used due to its systemic side
effect
High dose omeprazole significantly
reduces the frequency of further bleeding
and of surgery in patients with bleeding
ulcer.
dosage 40 mg i.v. every 12 hrs. for 5 days
Saltzman JR, N Engl J Med, 1997
NEW GENERATION PPI
-
Lanzoplazole
Pantoprazole
Rabeprazole
Esomeprazole
SOMATOSTATIN
Somatostatin / Octreotide infusion
- In massive UGIH with Hx of advance
liver disease is recommended
PROSTAGLANDIN ANALOQUE
- Cytoprotective agent
Somatostatin causes
- Splanchnic vasocostriction
- Reduces Azygos venous blood flow
- Reduces portal colatteral circulation and
decreases portal pressure
Octreotide (Somatostatin analoque)
50 microgram i.v.bolus then
50 microgram/ hr for infusion rate for 5
days
it can be discontinued without tapering.
III. Critical care and monitoring
ICU is needed, when?
- Massive/ continue or on going bleeding
with or without coagulopathy
- High Rockall scoring patients ( high risk
of morbidity & mortality due to continue
or rebleeding
- Severe co-morbid disease
IV. Definite diagnosis and management
Esophagogastroduodenoscope
( EGD for Dx and Rx)
Technique of operative intervention
Endoscogastroduodenoscope
( EGD for Dx and Rx)
Indication and Timing
- In high score patients ( > 3)
- Shock Category II, III
- Promptly as a double set up in active /massive
bleeding
- Under specialist to perform endoscopic
therapy for hemostasis or localized potential
angiographic or surgical therapy
* Initial diagnostic procedure of choice
should be performed in first 6- 24 hour
after onset of bleeding
Precaution and contraindication
Absolute contraindication
- GI perforation
- Acute uncontrolled unstable angina
- Severe untreated coagulopathy
- uncontrolled respiratory decompensation
- unexperience endoscopist and patient
agitation and uncooperation
* Intraoperative endoscopy ( on ET-tube
and G/A ) in selected cases or shift the
intervention to surgery or conservative only
General Complications of EGD
GI perforation
Sepsis
Pulmonary aspiration
Respiratory failure
Induce bleeding
Ventricular tachycardia
Myocardial infarction
Death
Prediction of further ulcer hemorrhage
The most important endoscopic predictor of
persistent or recurrent bleeding is active bleeding(
arterial spurting or oozing) at the time of endoscopy
The rate of rebleeding is approximately
3 % in the low risk group
25% in the high risk group
Number of blood transfusion units
> 5 units = 57% needing Surgery, mortality = 43%
Adverse Prognostic Factors in UGIH
Endoscopic criteria for endoscopic intervention
because of high rate of continue or re-bleeding
Stigmata of recent hemorrhage: Forrest classification I,II
Active bleeding lesion, oozing
Visible vessel, Adherent clot
Ulcer location
Posterior duodenal bulb
Higher lessor gastric curvature, High lying ulcer
Ulcer size and character
Large and hard edge
Forrest’s Endscopic finding Classification
IA : Active or Spurting
IB : Oozing ulcer
IIA: Non-bleeding visible vessel
IIB: Adherent clot
III : other unspecsified
Endoscopic Intervention For PU bleeding
1) Thermal Techniques ; monopolar/bipolar/heater
probe/laser photo coagulation
2) Injection Methods; 3.6% hypertonic saline+1:20,000
adrenalin 9-12 cc or 1:10,000 10 cc via 23-25 gauge
needles. 0.5 cc each point
3) Topical Agents; cyanoacrylate tissue glues/
microcrystalline collagen hemostat : * good for diffuse
gastric mucosal lesions or adjunct to other modalities
4) Mechanical methods; Hemoclips (1.5mm)/ balloon
tamponad
Sukawa, et al, Surg Clin of North Amer, 1992
Post combind adrenalin injection
And Heat probe coagulation in acute
GU bleeding
Post injection + Heater probe coagulation
in active DU bleeding
Follow up EGD of DU bleeding 1 month
Dieulafoy’s lesion
: Therapeutic Hemoclip via EGD
Complication
Perforation ; 1-3 %
Necrosis on high dose epinephrine
Induce acute and delayed hemorrhage
5-30% in visible vv. those treated by
thermal therapy or injection therapy
* most common is cardiopulmonary in nature
or related to sedation given
** Prophylaxis antibiotic should be applied
Endoscopic Intervention
For Esophageal varices :
1) Endoscopic band ligation combind
2) Endoscopic sclerosing therapy: 1% Ethoxyscleral
solution 0.5-1cc /point
3) Combined
Ballon Tamponad for temporary control after fail
endoscopic intervetion control
( Senstaken Blakemore tube preparation)
INTRAVARICEAL
INJECTION
( underfluoroscope
and venogram)
PARAVARICEAL
INJECTION
ENDOSCOPIC
MUCOSAL
VARICEAL
BAND LIGATION
SB- tube
Complication
Prophylaxis antibiotics cover gram negative
bacteria such as ciprofoxacin, levofloxacin,
ceftacidime, amoxicillin-culvulanic
acid,and aztreonam are appropriate
choices
TIPS( Transcutaneous-jugular
intrahepatic portosystemic shunts)
Non-operative shunt
Use in stage of cirrhosis with liver failure
In non-randomize trial : Less effective to
stop GI bleeding than operative shunt, but
less invasive.
Technique need radiointervention
( described by Zemel G, Katzen B T, Becker G J, et al
TIPS, JAMA, 266:390,1991 )
Topic of interest…..
Video capsule Endoscopy
Intraoperative endoscopy
Rare causes of upper gastrointestinal
hemorrhage from an obscure source;
small intestine above ligament of treiz that
EGD could not exam, new scope was
developed
Gastric Diverticulum
Post operative EGD to follow up
For non-definite surgical procedure cases
; after 2 week post operation (in Japan)
To check for malignant potential and
adjunct medical treatment including
H.pylori eradication in some case
* There is a report of unnecessary
management to eradicate H.pylori at the
time of hemorrhage occurrence.
Type of GASTRIC ULCER
GU ( Johnston’s criteria)
Acute or Chronic
Type I: at Lessor curvature
Type II: GU anywhere with DU
Type III: at Prepylorus( prepyloric ulcer)
Type IV: in 5 CM below EG junction
(high lying GU)
Type V - ?
DUODENAL ULCER (DU)
Acute or Chronic
Post bulbar
Kissing ulcer
Aortoenteric fistula
Operative intervention
To stop bleeding by suture in emergency
situation or failure bleeding control by
endoscopic intervention 1-2 times.
To definite treatment for the cause of
bleeding
High risk patient, massive and no time, no
blood( rare blood group AB, Rh negative ,
no skillful endoscopist)
Operative Finding
Do not forget to palpate and look for the
scar at stomach and duodenum both
anterior and posterior wall.
Technicques for suture and tissue
handling
Do not forget to pack the spleen before
mobilization of stomach
Hanging suture should be used
Atraumatic non-absorable suture should
be used
Babcock preferred to use for temporary
handling stomach incision edge
Incision should start at anterior stomach
wall longitudinally or at place that EGD
suspected the cause of bleeding.
Technicques for suture and tissue
handling
Suture bleeding point by Transfixing U stitch
it should be performed in acute massive DU
hemorrhage
For the difficult large duodenal ulcer and chronic
ulcer, alternative surgical procedures may be
added depend on condition of patient
- Ulcerectomy
- TV with drainage procedure ( various type of
pyloroplasty, gastrojejunostomy)
** selection for complete diverticulization
Technicques for suture and tissue
handling
Difficult chronic GU ; need tissue ?
> 10% of GU > 1 cm are malignant ulcer
Chua CL and Jeyaraj PR, Am J Surg; 1992
Difficult type
- posterior wall ulcer; ulcerectomy with or
without leaving the ulcer to capsule of
pancrease
- high lying GU type IV ( Johnston’s type)
Acid Reducing and Drainage Precedure
VAGOTOMY : reduce acid secretion in cephalic
phase
- TV ; resect vagus n. both ant. and post. trunk
And need to do drainage procedure, always
- SV ; resect ant. Vagus n. and post. N.of
Latajet ( vagus n. after separation of celiac and
hepatic branch). Need to do drainage procedue
- HSV ; resect only branch of Latajet and
preserve branch at Craw foot to preserve
function of pylorus
ANTRACTOMY : reduce G-cell
( Billroth I, or Billroth II)
TV
HSV
ANTRECTOMY
BILLROTH I
BILLROTH I
WITH TV
BILLROTH II
Operative Procedure for chronic GU and DU
GU Type I
; Antrectomy include ulcer or
ulcer excision
GU Type II ; Ulcer excision& TV &
pyloroplasty or highly selective vagotomy( HSV)
GU Type III and DU ; 3 options
1) Suture bleeding point & TV/SV with pyloroplasty
2) Suture bleeding point & HSV
3) Antrectomy with TV or SV
In GI hemorrhage – To stop bleeding is the main aim ****
Surgical tecniques for highlying GU( type IV)
Most aggressive distal gastrectomy including portion of ulcer
at esophageal wall with roux-en –Y esophagogastrojejunostomy;

Operation: Portocaval shunt is the procedure of
choice
2) Non-Shunt Operation: Sugiura’s( Esophageal
transection with devascularizatoion) , Hassab’s
operation(Total devascularization)
Selective shunt ( distal splenorenal)
Gastric Varices
Primary
