How it works
→ high-dose IV PPI + endoscopy < 24 h. Undetermined severe.
Key points
- (original synthesis · not guideline verbatim)
- Hemodynamic instability prioritizes resuscitation, with endoscopy performed after stabilization.

Worked calculation
The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.
| Bleeding type | Non-variceal (suspected peptic ulcer, etc.) |
|---|---|
| Hemodynamically unstable/shock | Yes |
| Hemoglobin (optional) | 75 g/L |
→DispositionHigh-dose PPI + endoscopy within 24 h
- Resuscitation & transfusion：[Pending update] Some thresholds, grades and management recommendations on this page that conflict with current guidelines or are unverified are temporarily hidden pending verification against the guideline text.; in hemodynamic instability, prioritize resuscitation and perform endoscopy after stabilization
- Drugs：High-dose IV PPI (acid suppression, promotes hemostasis and prevents rebleeding)
- Endoscopy timing：Emergency endoscopy within 24 h once stable, endoscopic hemostasis by Forrest classification; continue IV PPI after endoscopy for high-risk ulcers
