| Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to evaluate acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB). We compared characteristics and outcomes between patients who develop AUGIB while in-hospital and patients who initially present with AUGIB. In-hospital patients had elevated mortality and morbidity with higher vasopressor use and extended length of stay. Antithrombotic use constituted a robust risk factor for in-hospital AUGIB. Interestingly the shorter time to endoscopy in inpatients did not offset their worse outcomes. Whether this observation is related to increased comorbidities and antithrombotic use in in-hospital bleeders, larger scale studies are warranted to shed more light on this important matter. |
