Zur therapie der �sophagusvarizenblutung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland (West) ? Ergebnisse einer Urnfrage

1991

An 1076 chirurgischen und internistischen Abteilung in der BRD (West) wurde eine Umfrage zur Behandlung der Osophagusvarizenblutung durchgefuhrt. Es uberwiegt die Akutsklerosierung bzw. die Ballonsondenbehandlung mit nachfolgender Sklerosierung bei der aktiven Blutung. Die abdominelle Sperroperation wird bei der konservativ nicht stillbaren Blutung noch vor dem portokavalen Notshunt bevorzugt. Betablocker werden vor allem in internistischen Abteilungen zur Rezidivprophylaxe eingesetzt. Erst nach mehrfacher Rezidivblutung trotz Sklerosierung sehen etwa die Halfte der Abteilungen eine Indikation zum elektiven Shunt. Der distale splenorenale Shunt nach Warren and die portokavale Anastomose dom…

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows: To assess the efficacy as well as adverse events of emergency sclerotherapy (or band ligation) combined with pharmacological treatments versus sclerotherapy (or band ligation) alone or vasoactive drugs alone for acute variceal bleeding in cirrhotic patients based on the results of randomised clinical trials (RCTs).

Gastroesophageal Reflux and Bleeding Esophageal Varices

1979

The incidence of gastroesophageal reflux was evaluated with the use of a pH probe in 12 patients with cirrhosis and recent variceal hemorrhage and in 15 healthy control subjects. Short episodes of reflux occurred in 42% of the patients and in 47% of the controls. During an observation period of 1 hr, the cumulative duration of reflux was similar in patients (2.5 ± 1.3 min) and controls (3.1 ± 1.4 min). Mean lower esophageal sphincter pressures were normal in both groups but did not show a significant correlation with the duration of reflux. These data support previous observations that gastroesophageal reflux does not appear to be a contributing factor in the development of variceal hemorrh…
