ACP Journal Club. The Glasgow-Blatchford Bleeding Score identified patients with upper GI bleeding who could be managed as outpatients.
Description of prediction guide: The GBS had 4 variables: blood urea levels (6.5 to 7.9 mmol/L = 2, 8.0 to 9.9 mmol/L = 3, 10 to 25 mmol/L = 4, > 25 mmol/L = 6), hemoglobin levels (120 to 129 g/L = 1, 100 to 119 g/L = 3, < 100 g/L = 6 [men]; 100 to 119 g/L = 1, < 100 g/L = 6 [women]), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (100 to 109 mm Hg = 1, 90 to 99 mm Hg = 2, < 90 mm Hg = 3), and other markers (pu...
متن کاملUse of glasgow-blatchford bleeding score reduces hospital stay duration and costs for patients with low-risk upper GI bleeding
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) bleeding is a frequent cause of hospitalization. Its severity may be assessed before endoscopy using the Glasgow-Blatchford Bleeding Score (GBS), a score validated to identify patients requiring clinical intervention. The aim of this study was to assess whether the GBS was effective for shortening hospital stay and reducing costs in patient...
متن کامل[Validation of the Glasgow-Blatchford Scoring System to predict mortality in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a hospital of Lima, Peru (June 2012-December 2013)].
BACKGROUND AND AIM Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is a major cause of hospitalization and the most prevalent emergency worldwide, with a mortality rate of up to 14%. In Peru, there have not been any studies on the use of the Glasgow-Blatchford Scoring System to predict mortality in upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The aim of this study is to perform an external validation of the Glasgow-Blatch...
متن کاملRisk assessment in acute non-variceal upper GI bleeding: the AIMS65 score in comparison with the Glasgow-Blatchford score in a Scottish population.
INTRODUCTION The early use of risk stratification scores is recommended for patients presenting with acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeds (ANVGIB). AIMS65 is a novel, recently derived scoring system, which has been proposed as an alternative to the more established Glasgow-Blatchford score (GBS). OBJECTIVE To validate the AIMS65 scoring system in a predominantly Caucasian pop...
