Gastric Ultrasound in the Management of Emergency Department Patients with Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding: A Case Series and Sonographic Technique
Background
Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a common condition in the emergency department (ED) with high incidence and mortality.
Objectives
Very early risk stratification of GIB patients can sometimes be a challenge. The decision to intubate these patients is multifactorial and requires careful consideration.
Discussion
Gastric ultrasound (GUS) is an adjunct tool that may help make such decisions and is supported by anesthesiology society guidelines to assess aspiration risk.
Conclusion
In this manuscript, we present a case series of ED patients with upper GIB in whom emergency physicians (2 fellowship-trained attendings and 2 senior residents facile with point-of-care ultrasound) performed GUS. As a supplement to the clinical examination, this sonographic "lavage" (i.e., using GUS in patients with upper GIB) helped predict aspiration risk, support diagnostic reasoning, and expedite early goal-directed management and appropriate disposition. We also provide a step-by-step tutorial using high-quality media, as well as a novel algorithm for translation of this technique to the bedside for emergency physicians.
