Abstract
Commentary Upper GI bleeding is one of the most important therapeutic areas in gastroenterology. Many of the cases fall under the category of an emergency situation and thus require urgent endoscopic intervention. In this review, Dr Loren Laine provides updated information about the epidemiology, the clinical presentation, and therapeutic interventions in various GI bleeding scenarios. In addition, Dr Laine provides a critical review of some of the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches that are commonly pursued despite their very low yield. Lastly, Dr Laine emphasizes, in his review, the importance of combining endoscopic and medical therapeutic interventions in patients who present with upper-GI bleeding. – Ronnie Fass, MD, Editor
