Peptic Ulcer Dz

CM Peptic Ulcer Disease

QuestionAnswer
half of people over age 60 have gastritis
Three types of gastritis Acute and hemorrhagic gastritis, non-erosive (chronic), Distinctive. Endoscopic visualization corresponds poorly. Distinction requires biopsy
Petechial hemorrhages and small erosions are seen in which type of gastritis? Hemorrhagic gastritis
Causes of acute hemorrhagic gastritis stress lesions in seriously ill patients, drugs (NSAIDs, alcohol, corrosive ingestion), Trauma (NG tubes, FB ingestion, radiation), Vascular, Reflux, H. pylori
Non-erosive (chronic) gastritis is caused by H. pylori or NSAIDs and bile reflux(chronic superificial chemical gastritis), autoimmune, environmental
H. pylori can cause what kind of gastritis? acute and chronic
Lifetime PUD prevalence 11-14%
3 most important etiological factors for PUD are H. pylori, NSAIDs, Acid (excess acid production is a rare cause)
Number one cause of PUD H. pylori. Also a major cause in gastric ulcers
H. pylori facts gram negative rod, spiral, flagellated, stomach is only known reservoir, transmission is suspected fecal-oral
Prevalence of H. pylori in developed nations 80%
Populations in which H. pylori is more prevalent AA and Hispanics
Where is H. pylori found? Resides in the mucosal layer adjacent to the epithelial surface. Usually found in the antrum of the stomach
Tests to identify H. pylori Serology, biopsy with histology, biopsy with urease test, urease breath test, stool antigen
Which tests will not be affected by concurrent use of PPI, Abx, or bismuth? Serology and biopsy with histology. (note: serology can stay positive for years even with treatment)
H. pylori Tx Triple therapy for 2 weeks. PPI, Clarithromycin and amoxicillin. Confirm eradication (urease breath, blood test or stool test)
What percentage of people may require retreatment? 20%
H. pylori is associated with gastric adenoCa and MALT (mucosa associated lymphoid tissue) lymphoma
Subepithelial petechiae occur within one hour of ______ ingestion NSAID. Erosions if repeated doses in 24 hours.
Two types of NSAID injury Topical and Systemic
What protects the gastric mucosa? Prostaglandin (PGE2) by increasing mucin production, increasing mucosal blood flow, increasing bicarb production
How do NSAIDs affect PGE2 production decrease. except Celebrex
Syndrome caused by gastrinoma Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (associated with MEN I syndrome)
Where is ZE PUD most common? majority in duodenal bulb, but also in distal duodenum and jejunum
Multiple ulcers in the small bowel and diarrhea (steatorrhea) may suggest: Zollinger-Ellison syndrome
What must you dc before a gastrin test? your PPI
Nl fasting levels of gastrin <150pg/ml.
Fasting level of >1000pg/ml is virtually diagnostic for gastrinoma
What tests can be used for ZE? fasting gastrin levels, or secretin stim test
90% of gastrinomas in ZE are found in the gastrinoma triangle
Mets are seen in _______ % of patients at diagnosis in ZE 30-50%
Tx of ZE High dose PPI, Surgical resection if not metastatic, somatostatin, chemo
Most discriminating symptom of PUD presence of pain that awakens the patients from sleep between 2-3 am
____ is worse with meals, while ______is better with meals GU, DU
_________allows characterization of the lesion and biopsy which is important since about 4% of GU are cancerous EGD (allows you to biopsy, and assess risk of rebleeding if near a vessel)
Common site for ulcers antrum of the stomach. (right near where the stomach leads into the duodenum)
Most common complication in PUD Hemorrhage
Complications of PUD Hemorrhage, Perforation (penetration of ulcer into adjacent viscous or organ), Gastric outlet obstruction
Tx for PUD Antacids, H2 blockers, PPIs
Which cell secretes HCL? Parietal cell.
3 stimuli to the parietal cell to secrete HCL? histamine, acetylcholine, gastrin. PPIs block out all three mechanisms.
Principle inhibitor of HCL production from the parietal cell Somatostatin
How should PPIs be dosed? 15-30 minutes before meals
How do PPIs work? Block parietal cell H+/K+ ATPase pump
Advantage of PPI to H2 shorter healing period with PPIs. Heals nearly 100% of ulcers refractory to H2 blockers
Tx for PUD that is H. pylori negative 4-6 weeks if asymptomatic
tx for PUd that is H. pylori postitive 2 weeks
AE's for PPIs Diarrhea, Nausea, Abdominal Pain, HA. Increased risk of hip fx with long-term use, Increased risk of C. difficile
Surgery procedures for PUD Gastric patch, Gastrectomy with vagotomy. Surgery is rare now b/c of PPIs
Who is at high risk for NSAID complications? previous GI event, older age, concomitant use of anticoagulants, corticosteroids or other NSAIDs, high-dose NSAID therapy, chronic diseases, if H.pylori positive
Who can't use misoprostol? women of childbearing age
In patients with high CV risk and moderate GI risk tx with PPI/misoprostol and Naproxen
_______ is a synthetic prostaglandin E1 analog Misoprostol
Concurrent use of a PPI, abx, or bismuth can cause false negative results in H. Pylori testing
Most common causes of peptic ulcer disease H. pylori and NSAIDs
