 | | Obtaining a complete medical history and performing a thorough physical examination are necessary in order to create an appropriate diagnostic plan for the patient with hematemesis. |  | | It is best to determine the underlying cause, and treat the specific problem, rather than attempting only symptomatic therapy. |  | | Medications that protect or sooth the lining of the esophagus, such as sucralfate (Carafate®) may be helpful. |

| | HEMATEMESIS AND MELENA |
 | | Hematemesis is a more dangerous form of bleeding from a prognostic point of view than comparable degree of melena. |  | | Vision may be blurred; there is a cold sweat and a sensation of dizziness which, combined with the sensation of body weakness, necessitates the patient reclining. |  | | Commonly, the initial phase of the clinical picture of a large a G.I. hemorrhage is a feeling of nausea, weakness, chilliness and a sudden desire for a bowel movement. |

 | | Adequate venous access (large-bore cannulas or a central line) is generally obtained in case the patient suffers a further bleed and becomes unstable. |  | | Fluids and/or blood is adminstered, preferably by central venous catheter, and the patient is prepared for emergency endoscopy, which is typically done in theatres. |  | | In a "hemodynamically significant" case of hematemesis resuscitation is an immediate priority to prevent cardiac arrest. |
