| Abstract: | Treatment of patients with gastroduodenal ulcer bleedings in a general hospital of emergency care is a complex of measures including of endoscopic diagnosis and stopping of bleeding, use of effective antisecretory drugs with obligatory laboratory control of acid-producing function of the stomach, surgical treatment and eradication of H. pylori. Up-to-date methods of endoscopic hemostasis - spirituous infiltration, argon-plasma coagulation, clipping of vessels in ulcer and also their combination in difficult cases - provide reliable hemostasis and allow to avoid urgent surgery. Recently we succeeded in reducing the rate of urgent surgeries performed at the height of bleedings from 70 to 40%. These methods can be recommended for clinical practice because they reduce significantly lethality rates in patients with severe conditions. |
