Diagnosis and management of nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage: European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) Guideline

Ian M. Gralnek, Jean‐Marc Dumonceau, Ernst J. Kuipers, Ángel Lanas et al.

Short summary

The ESGE recommends immediate hemodynamic assessment and resuscitation, a restrictive red blood cell transfusion strategy (hemoglobin 7-9 g/dL), and pre-endoscopy risk stratification using the Glasgow-Blatchford Score (GBS). High-dose IV PPIs are recommended for patients awaiting endoscopy, but should not delay the procedure.
