Treatment and Management
The primary objective of all gastroenteritis treatments (correction: Gastrointestinal Bleeding treatments) is two-fold: to stop the active loss of blood and to treat the underlying cause so that it does not happen again. The approach is determined by the severity of the bleed identified during the diagnostic phase. For minor bleeds, medical therapy and observation may be enough. For major hemorrhage, clinical intervention must be rapid and definitive. At Liv Hospital, we follow a multidisciplinary strategy that combines gastroenterology, interventional radiology, and surgery to provide a 360-degree safety net for our patients.
During an endoscopy or colonoscopy, the specialist can often stop the bleeding immediately using several “hemostatic” techniques.
These “keyhole” procedures are highly effective and often avoid the need for traditional surgery.
For bleeding caused by stomach or duodenal ulcers, the clinical treatment focuses on the acid environment.
This combined approach has dramatically reduced the number of patients who need surgery for ulcers.
Bleeding from enlarged veins (varices) is a medical emergency that requires a specific set of procedures.
Because these bleeds can be massive, the specialized vascular and GI teams at Liv Hospital work in tandem to stabilize the patient’s circulatory system.
If a scope cannot reach the bleed or if the source is in the small intestine, interventional radiology provides a non-surgical solution.
While endoscopic and radiological treatments have become the first line of defense, surgery remains a vital clinical backup.
Our surgical team at Liv Hospital is available 24/7, ensuring that if a non-surgical method fails, a definitive operative solution is seconds away.
Managing the patient’s blood volume is a critical part of the treatment “procedure.”
At Liv Hospital, we have a specialized blood bank and transfusion protocols that prioritize the safety and compatibility of every unit of blood administered.
If the hemorrhage was triggered by a medication, the treatment plan must address the “reversal” of that drug.
Educating the patient on why these medications became dangerous is a core component of our clinical management, ensuring they don’t accidentally re-start a high-risk drug during their recovery.
Treatment is a collaborative effort between the patient and the medical team. At Liv Hospital, our goal is to provide a supportive environment where your recovery is the top priority.
