Nonoperative emergency treatment of variceal hemorrhage.

D A Burnett1, L F Rikkers.   

Abstract

The nonoperative management of acute variceal hemorrhage can control acute hemorrhage and allow stabilization of the patient prior to definitive therapy to prevent further bleeding episodes. Balloon tamponade, endoscopic sclerotherapy, and pharmacotherapy can stop acute variceal bleeding. Endoscopic sclerotherapy has the highest reported success rate, decreases the incidence of early rebleeding, and is the recommended first method to control bleeding.
