CONSULTS:<br />

Gastroenterologist – Dr. Cole: recommends endoscopy, IV PPI, NG lavage<br />

Additional Labs: none<br />

Additional Images: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy<br />

CLINICAL PROGRESSION:<br />

History and physical, adequate IV access, IV fluids, and monitor. Students are expected to recognize GI<br />

bleeding, consider NG lavage (if they do lavage, coffee grounds are present, no gross blood), order<br />

appropriate laboratory studies, consult GI and determine need for blood products. Students may<br />

administer acid suppressors (proton pump inhibitors). Once students consult GI and discuss future<br />

management, case will end. Patients can require more aggressive fluid resuscitation, and scenario may<br />

include increasing emesis with intubation for airway protection if time allows.<br />

***If the students give 1-2 liters of fluid or blood products within the first 10 minutes of the case:<br />

HR BP Temperature ( o C) O 2 Sats (RA) RR<br />

110 145/90 37.0 o 99% 16<br />

***Failure to give fluids within 10 minutes of the start of the case OR failure to consider GI bleeding as<br />

part of differential diagnosis, vitals will worsen with blood pressure gradually dropping and a slight<br />

increase in heart rate. If deemed necessary, GI or Primary care provider will call for guidance.<br />

HR BP Temperature ( o C) O 2 Sats (RA) RR<br />

150 70/40, 37.0 o 99% 16<br />
