h pylori


Use of NSAIDs aspirin and corticoids



Duodenal ulcers are common in
Young
This alcohol and dietary factors play a role in peptic ulcer disease
No
Describe the pain when given peptic ulcer disease patients food duodebnal versus gastric
Duodenal ulcers feels better with food gastric ulcers feels worse
What are the complications of the peptic ulcer disease
G.I. bleed and perforation
Signs of perforation
Severe epigastric pain

Bored like abdomen


No bowel sounds


Rigidity

Outpatient management of peptic ulcer disease
H2 receptor antagonist at night

That increased H2 receptor antagonist twice a day


Then switched to a proton pump inhibitor

What is important to understand when given mucosal protective agents
You have to give them two hours apart from other medications avoid antacids and H2 blockers because it needs an acidic environment
Benefits of Carafate
Associated with decreasing nosocomial pneumonia
This mucosal protective agent has a direct antibacterial action against H. pylori
Pepto-Bismol
Use as a prophylaxis against nsaid induced o ulcers
Misoprostol (citotec)
If the patient cannot discontinue NSAIDs and begins to have ulcers what medication should you
Proton pump inhibitor
These medications do not prevent nsaid inducedo ulcers
H2-blockers Carafate and antacids
What are the benefits of antacids
They do not reduce the amount of gastric acidity they're just symptomatic relief
Why is it important that you use combination therapy for H pylori
Because resistance develops quickly to Flagyl and clarithromycin but does not develop resistance against amoxicillin or tetracycline
What are the combination options for treatment of H. pylori
MOC. AOC. MOA

flagyl omeprazole clarithromycin


Amoxicillin omeprazole clarithromycin


Flagyl omeprazole amoxicillin


After the antibiotics are finished you want to continue proton pump inhibitor for seven weeks or H2 blocker or carafet for 16 weeks

What are the treatment options for H pie Laurie when giving bismut

bmt, bmt+omeprazole


bismuth flagyl and tetracycline


^^ plus omeprazole

Causes of gerd
Incompetent lower esophageal specter or delayed gastric emptying
First line management in reflux
H2 blocker's first and proton pump inhibitors if they're ineffective
Hepatitis A is transmitted by
Fecal oral contaminated water and food sewerage shellfish hurricane areas sexual contact
Facts about hepatitis A
Blood in stool or infectious for 2 to 6 weeks

Mortality is rare and fulminant hepatitis merely occurs

Cause of hepatitis b
Blood borne in serum saliva semen vaginal secretions transmitted by blood and blood products sexual activity mother and fetus
What's the difference between hepatitis B and hepatitis C
Hepatitis B is a DNA virus hepatitis C is an RNA virus
Who is at risk for hepatitis C
IV drug users blood transfusions
Pre icteric phase
Tired and weak anorexia nausea vomiting headache this is the flulike symptoms
Icteric phase
Weight loss jaundice pruritis right upper quadrant pain Clay colored stools because they can't conjugate Billy Rubin dark urine hepatosplenomegaly
Labs with hepatitis
Urine has protein and bilirubin

Elevated AST ALT (500-2000)


LDH Billy Rubin alkaline phosphatase PT normal or slightly elevated

Normal AST a LT
Less than 35 to 40
Acute hepatitis A serology
Anti-hav igM
Pre-exposure non-infective immunity and hepatitis A serology

Anti-HAV- IgG

HbsAG

First evidence of hepatitis B infection will remain positive and asymptomatic and chronic hepatitis B patients

Anti--hbc
Occurs with IgM after surface antigen disappears and before antibody appears

HbeAg

Indicates a circulating hepatitis B virus and highly infectious serum this is found only in positive patients indicates viral replication and infectivity
Anti-hbe
Appears after infectious state it signifies diminished viral replication of decreases activity
Active hepatitis B serology

Hbsag, HbeAG anti HBc, IgM

Chronic hepatitis B serology

HbsAG, anti-HBc, anti-HBe, IgM, IgG

Recovered hepatitis B serology

Anit HBc, anti-HBsAG

The serology for hepatitis C is the same for acute and chronic how do you differentiate from current exposure

You have to do a polymer's chain reaction to differentiate prior exposure from current
Management of hepatitis
Supportive

Fluids


rest


No alcohol or drugs to talk suffice by the liver


No protein


oxazepam (serax) if sedation is necessary


Vitamin K if PT is limited in 15 seconds


Lactulose For an elevated ammonia levels signs of encephalopathy
