About this study

Official title: Validation of a New Tunisian Risk Score for Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding in the Emergency Room: Study of the TU-GIB Score

We have developed a new reliable, easy and reproducible clinical and biological score to select patients presenting to the emergency department with upper GI bleeding and at high risk of developing complications in order to plan an adequate management.

This score was compared to the Glasgow-Blatchford score and showed better results in predicting rebleeding, the need for hemostasis therapy and any complications at day 30 including mortality.

In a second step and as an objective of this study, it is necessary to perform an external validation of this score in different emergency departments.

We have developed a new reliable, easy and reproducible clinical and biological score to select patients presenting to the emergency department with upper GI bleeding and at high risk of developing complications in order to plan an adequate management.

This score was compared to the Glasgow-Blatchford score and showed better results in predicting rebleeding, the need for hemostasis therapy and any complications at day 30 including mortality.

In a second step and as an objective of this study, it is necessary to perform an external validation of this score in different emergency departments.

We will conduct a multicenter, descriptive and analytical study in different emergency departments Inclusion criteria: patients consulting the emergency department for upper GI hemorrhage of non-traumatic origin.

Exclusion criteria: patients under 18 years of age, diagnosed with external hemorrhoids with parietal lesions. We exclude any patient who does not consent, is lost to follow-up or has incomplete information.

Anonymity and confidentiality of the data were respected. Data collection was carried out using a data processing form designed for the purpose of this work, including descriptive analysis of the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the patients, as well as the para-clinical data.

Patients were followed up by telephone call at D30 to record the date and cause of any complications noted, such as rebleeding, hospitalization, or death.

The data will be entered and analyzed in SPSS 21.0
