Topics Covered

• Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is an important medical emergency
• The literature has provided many evidence-based management strategies
• Early endoscopy within 24 hours should be provided
• Injection for active ulcer bleeding should not be used as a monotherapy
• Thermal device (heat probe) is comparable to mechanical device (hemoclips)
• Underlying vessel beneath blood clot should exposed and treated
• Pre-endoscopy use of proton pump inhibitor may reduce need for endoscopic therapy
• Intravenous proton pump inhibitor is an important adjuvant to endoscopic therapy
• Routine second-look endoscopy is not recommended
• Surgery is still providing the ultimate hemostasis in selected cases
• Support of cardiopulmonary conditions is important to reduce mortality
• Anti-platelet agent should be restarted as soon as patient's condition stabilizes
