Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is bleeding in the upper gastrointestinal tract from the esophagus, stomach or duodenum. Blood may be noticed in vomiting or in altered form as black stools. Depending on the amount of blood loss, symptoms may include shock. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding can be caused by stomach ulcers, gastric erosion, esophageal varices, and less common causes such as stomach cancer. Initial assessment includes measurement of blood pressure and heart rate, as well as blood tests to determine hemoglobin.
