الملخص

Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) represents a substantial clinical and economic burden with significant mortality and morbidity. Validated prognostic scales are used to stratify patients into low and high risk, on the basis of clinical, laboratory, and endoscopic criteria. Early identification of high-risk patients allows appropriate intervention, which minimizes morbidity and mortality.
