Episode #21: Managing an upper GI bleed
Show Notes

In our last episode, we dived into the clinical and biochemical evaluation of patients presenting with an upper GI bleed. We explored the various methods in stratifying patients, helping to determine who needs endoscopic evaluation more urgently. 

In the second episode of our 2-part series on UBGIT, we are joined once again by our Senior Residents Dr Tan Yu Bin, and Dr Li Huanghuan, where they share about the management of patients with UBGIT - from the initial resuscitation, transfusion breakpoints, to endoscopic evaluation and therapeutics.
