Description
Dr. Navin Kumar, an attending Gastroenterologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital, medical educator at Harvard Medical School, and co-founder of the Run the List podcast, and Dr. Walker Redd, a Gastroenterology fellow at the University of North Carolina and co-founder of RTL, discuss variceal upper GI bleeding to build upon the principles discussed in the non-variceal UGIB episode. In this episode, Navin and Walker use a case discussion to emphasize the importance of recognizing which patients are at risk for variceal bleeding, what distinguishes variceal GI bleeding from other sources of GIB, initial steps in management, and additional considerations to keep in mind when caring for these patients.
