Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled MANAGEMENT OF PEPTIC ULCER BLEEDING - THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI AND NON- STEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS Submitted by Lai Kam Chuen for the degree of Doctor of Medicine at The University of Hong Kong in July 2005 Bleeding is the most common complication of peptic ulcer diseases and is a common reason of hospital admission. Despite improved understanding of peptic ulcer diseases and the developments of effective treatments for peptic ulcers, the mortality rate due to peptic ulcer bleeding remains high and constant. Refinement in management strategies for peptic ulcer bleeding is required to improve the prognosis of patients with peptic ulcer bleeding. Both H. pylori and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are important causes of uncomplicated peptic ulcer diseases. The studies of this thesis were designed (1) to investigate the management of bleeding peptic ulcers associated with infection with H. pylori (2) to investigate the management of bleeding peptic ulcers viassociated with the use of NSAIDs. The first study evaluated different diagnostic tests, including histology, biopsy urease test and serology, for the diagnosis of H. pylori in patients with bleeding duodenal ulcers. Although these tests have been shown to diagnose H. pylori with sufficient accuracy in uncomplicated duodenal ulcers, these tests had poor sensitivity in bleeding duodenal ulcers when they were used alone. In particular, rapid urease test, a commonly used test during endoscopy, had significantly high false negative rates for H. pylori in the gastric antrum. To examine the role of H. pylori in the long term management of patients with bleeding duodenal ulcers, a prospective study on duodenal ulcer bleeding in patients not using NSAIDs was carried out. More patients not receiving anti- helicobacter therapy than those receiving anti-helicobacter therapy had recurrence of ulcer bleeding after a median follow-up of 52 months, but this did not reach statistical significance. Logistic regression analysis on clinical, personal, and endoscopic characteristics identified persistent H. pylori infection as the only independent predictor of recurrence of duodenal ulcer bleeding. We then studied prospectively the efficacy of a 2-week anti-helicobacter therapy in the healing of H. pylori-associated bleeding gastric and duodenal ulcers. Endoscopy showed significantly less bleeding gastric ulcers than bleeding duodenal ulcers healed 4 weeks after treatment. Stepwise discriminant analysis demonstrated that small ulcers (

Book Synopsis Chalk Talks in Internal Medicine by : Somnath Mookherjee
Download or read book Chalk Talks in Internal Medicine written by Somnath Mookherjee and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides teaching scripts for medical educators in internal medicine and coaches them in creating their own teaching scripts. Every year, thousands of attending internists are asked to train the next generation of physicians to master a growing body of knowledge. Formal teaching time has become increasingly limited due to rising clinical workload, medical documentation requirements, duty hour restrictions, and other time pressures. In addition, today’s physicians-in-training expect teaching sessions that deliver focused, evidence-based content that is integrated into clinical workflow. In keeping with both time pressures and trainee expectations, academic internists must be prepared to effectively and efficiently teach important diagnostic and management concepts. A teaching script is a methodical and structured plan that aids in effective teaching. The teaching scripts in this book anticipate learners’ misconceptions, highlight a limited number of teaching points, provide evidence to support the teaching points, use strategies to engage the learners, and provide a cognitive scaffold for teaching the topic that the teacher can refine over time. All divisions of internal medicine (e.g. cardiology, rheumatology, and gastroenterology) are covered and a section on undifferentiated symptom-based presentations (e.g. fatigue, fever, and unintentional weight loss) is included. This book provides well-constructed teaching scripts for commonly encountered clinical scenarios, is authored by experienced academic internists and allows the reader to either implement them directly or modify them for their own use. Each teaching script is designed to be taught in 10-15 minutes, but can be easily adjusted by the reader for longer or shorter talks. Teaching Scripts in Internal Medicine is an ideal tool for internal medicine attending physicians and trainees, as well as physician’s assistants, nurse practitioners, and all others who teach and learn internal medicine.

Book Synopsis Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding, An issue of Gastroenterology Clinics of North America by : Ian M. Gralnek
Download or read book Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding, An issue of Gastroenterology Clinics of North America written by Ian M. Gralnek and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of Gastroenterology Clinics of North America is all about acute upper GI bleeding and is divided into two distinct sections: section I is devoted to nonvariceal upper GI bleeding and section II is devoted to variceal upper GI bleeding. Acute nonvariceal upper GI bleeding may originate from the esophagus, stomach, or duodenum, essentially anywhere proximal to the Ligament of Treitz. In Section I, Dr Gianluca Rotondano, Hospital Maresca, Torre del Greco, Italy, begins with a review of the epidemiology and diagnosis of acute nonvariceal upper GI bleeding. We then turn to patient presentation, risk stratification, and how to initially medically manage these bleeding patients. I am pleased to have one of our emergency medicine colleagues, Dr Andrew Meltzer, Department of Emergency Medicine, George Washington University, contribute this important article and provide a unique viewpoint from the emergency department where most of these patients initially present. As we all know, endoscopic hemostasis is the accepted standard of care for patients with acute nonvariceal upper GI bleeding. Moreover, peptic ulcer bleeding is the most common nonvariceal cause of acute upper GI bleeding; thus, Drs Yidan Lu, Yen-I Chen, and Alan Barkun from McGill University, Montreal, Canada, provide an in-depth review of the endoscopic management of peptic ulcer bleeding. Drs Eric Tjwa, I. Lisanne Holster, and Ernst Kuipers from the Erasmus Medical Center University Hospital, Rotterdam, The Netherlands, review the endoscopic management of all other causes of acute nonvariceal upper GI bleeding, and in addition, Drs Louis Wong Kee Song and Michael Levy from the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota discuss emerging endoscopic hemostasis treatments, such as topical sprays and over-the-scope clipping devices. Although endoscopic hemostasis is very highly effective, there are unfortunately cases where bleeding is unable to be controlled or when significant rebleeding occurs that is not amenable to endoscopic therapy. Therefore, I have included two articles that provide insight into the question...what if endoscopic hemostasis fails? The first article, written by Drs Philip Wai Yan Chiu and James Yun Wong Lau, from Prince of Wales Hospital, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, focuses on tried and true surgical treatment options. The second article, by Dr Sujal Nanavati, University of California at San Francisco, Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, addresses the alternative treatment strategy of angiographic embolization, which has now emerged as the often preferred salvage treatment strategy.

This book was released on 2020-11-06 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical nutrition therapy plays a central role in the management of diseases including reducing disease risk, slowing disease progression, and monitoring nutritional status. Though a nutrition care process has been implemented in some countries, many do not have a national standard for nutrition and dietetic practices for different diseases including the scope of gastrointestinal disorders. Moreover, there is no guidance to dietetic practice by most of the governing bodies of the world. Cases on Medical Nutrition Therapy for Gastrointestinal Disorders presents real-world case studies on nutrition assessment, diagnosis, intervention, monitoring, and evaluation standards and practices. Moreover, the cases provide critical updates on the use of medical nutrition therapy for gastrointestinal disorders that include but are not limited to Celiac Disease, Crohn’s Disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, constipation, and bowel obstructions and discusses strategies for the prevention and management of these disorders. Registered dietitians, dietetic interns, nutritionists, healthcare professionals, researchers, academicians, and students will benefit from the scenarios presented within this book.
