Episode 79: Upper GI Bleeding (Non-Variceal)
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 continues Season 2 of RTL’s partnership with McGraw Hill Medical by discussing upper GI bleeding with Dr. Walker Redd, a Gastroenterology fellow at the University of North Carolina and co-founder of RTL. In this episode, Navin and Walker share how they approach non-variceal upper GI bleeding. Through a case discussion of this common presentation, they review how to localize the potential source, frame the differential diagnosis, initially manage these patients, how to effectively communicate with the GI consult team, and the role of endoscopy.
