Endoscopic Intervention in Renal Failure UGIB: Efficacy & Models
Introduction Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) poses a significant risk in patients with renal insufficiency. Endoscopic intervention is a standard therapy aimed at stopping bleeding and reducing mortality. However, the effectiveness of endoscopy may vary according to kidney function, comorbidities, and the severity of bleeding. This article explores disease severity thresholds where endoscopic intervention may fail…

Endoscopic Intervention in Renal Failure with Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Efficacy and Predictive Modeling
Introduction Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) represents a critical challenge in patients with renal insufficiency. Renal impairment complicates hemostasis, alters pharmacokinetics of medications, and can influence the success rates of endoscopic interventions. This article reviews the efficacy of endoscopy in this high‑risk population, identifies disease severity thresholds where intervention may fail to reduce mortality, and describes…
