On this week's episode of Critical Care Time, Dr. David Dulaney rounds out GI bleeds in the ICU by taking on cirrhosis & variceal bleeds! During this show we discuss the unique challenge associated with managing a patient with cirrhosis - specifically focusing on the coagulopathy of advanced liver disease. We then delve into the nuances associated with managing a variceal bleed, both in terms of the unique critical care elements but also the challenges faced by the endoscopist when trying to saves these patients in extremis. Tune in, leave us a review and most importantly - leave us some feedback!
