[Treatment of acute ulcerous gastroduodenal hemorrhage].

Basic principles of infusion-transfusional therapy, methods of endoscopic hemostasis as well as indications for surgical treatment of acute hemorrhagic ulcers of the stomach and the duodenum are presented. If is stated that valid use of endoscopic methods of hemostasis provides possibility for temporal hemostasis in 70% of patients. It endoscopic hemostasis is ineffective in hemorrhage from ulcer or in recurrent hemorrhage it is recommended to perform urgent surgical interventions. To avoid the relapse of hemorrhage after endoscopic hemostasis from ulcer or revealing endoscopic symptoms of unreliable (unstable) hemostasis it is necessary to perform delayed operations (not later that 2 days from the moment of admission of the patients). If the hemostasis shows to be stable which is proved by endoscopy, early elective operations (in 12-14 days) are indicated.
