About Haemorrhage

Haemorrhage, commonly known as bleeding, is not a single procedure but a critical medical condition requiring immediate intervention by an Internal Medicine specialist. The management involves a systematic approach to identify the source of bleeding, stabilize the patient, and control the blood loss. This includes a thorough clinical assessment, diagnostic tests like endoscopy or imaging, and therapeutic measures such as medication, endoscopic procedures, or blood transfusions. The primary goal is to restore circulatory stability, prevent organ damage, and address the underlying cause, whether it's gastrointestinal, pulmonary, or related to other internal systems. Timely and expert management is crucial for patient survival and recovery.

Key Highlights

    Rapid stabilization of the patient's vital signs to prevent shock and organ failure.Utilization of advanced diagnostic tools like endoscopy, colonoscopy, or CT scans to pinpoint the bleeding source accurately.Minimally invasive therapeutic options, such as endoscopic clipping or cauterization, to control bleeding without major surgery.Comprehensive management that addresses both the immediate bleeding and the underlying medical condition.Coordinated care involving blood banks for timely transfusions and monitoring in specialized units.

Who is this surgery for?

  • Active gastrointestinal bleeding presenting as hematemesis (vomiting blood) or melena (black, tarry stools).
  • Severe epistaxis (nosebleed) or hemoptysis (coughing up blood) that does not respond to initial first aid.
  • Suspected internal bleeding due to trauma, anticoagulant medication, or coagulopathy disorders.
  • Signs of hypovolemic shock, such as rapid heart rate, low blood pressure, and dizziness, indicating significant blood loss.
  • Bleeding associated with conditions like peptic ulcers, esophageal varices, diverticulosis, or tumors.

How to prepare

  • Immediate assessment of vital signs and establishment of intravenous (IV) access for fluid resuscitation.
  • Blood tests including complete blood count (CBC), coagulation profile, and cross-matching for potential transfusion.
  • Patient history review focusing on medication use (especially blood thinners), past bleeding episodes, and existing medical conditions.
  • For planned diagnostic procedures like endoscopy, fasting for 6-8 hours may be required.
  • Informed consent process explaining the diagnostic and potential therapeutic steps to be taken.

Risks & possible complications

  • Progression to hypovolemic shock, multi-organ failure, or death if bleeding is not controlled promptly.
  • Complications from procedures like endoscopy, including perforation, infection, or adverse reaction to sedation.
  • Risks associated with blood transfusions, such as allergic reactions, transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), or infection.
  • Recurrence of bleeding from the same or a new site.
  • Development of anemia requiring prolonged treatment and recovery.

Recovery & hospital stay

  • Initial monitoring in a high-dependency or ICU setting until vital signs are stable and bleeding has ceased.
  • Gradual reintroduction of diet, often starting with clear liquids, as tolerated after the bleeding is controlled.
  • Continuation or adjustment of medications to treat the underlying cause (e.g., proton pump inhibitors for ulcers).
  • Follow-up appointments and possibly repeat endoscopic evaluation to ensure complete healing.
  • Lifestyle and dietary modifications as advised by the physician to prevent recurrence.
  • checked Typical hospital stay: 3-7 days
  • checked Expected recovery time: 2-6 weeks
