Abstract
La hemorragia digestiva alta reviste singular importancia en el anciano porque es un evento que puede rápidamente poner en peligro la vida. En el adulto mayor, la alta incidencia de enfermedades osteomioarticulares y cardiovasculares asociadas, que además condicionan la ingestión de medicamentos como los antiinflamatorios no esteroideos y aspirina, y los hábitos tóxicos frecuentes en la tercera edad, como el consumo de alcohol, café y tabaco, constituyen factores que ejercen efecto ulcerógeno sobre la mucosa del tracto digestivo superior. La causa más común de hemorragia es la úlcera gastroduodenal. En la actualidad se considera de importancia capital la realización precoz de la endoscopia para el diagnóstico y tratamiento médico consecuente, y se limita la cirugía sólo para los ancianos en los cuales, por su estado general y la cuantía o persistencia del sangrado, no sea posible la realización de aquella, cuando fracase el tratamiento endoscópico, el farmacológico o ambos.
High digestive hemorrhage has a peculiar significance in elderly because of it is an event putting quickly at risk the life. In elderly, the high incidence of associated osteomyoarticular and cardiovascular diseases that also fitting the drugs ingestion, e.g. the non-steroid anti-inflammatory and the aspirin and the toxic habits frequent in third age, since the alcohol, coffee and tobacco consumption are factors having an ulcerative effect on the high digestive tract mucosa. The commonest cause of hemorrhage is the gastric ulcer. At present time we considered as of supreme significance the early carrying out of the endoscopy for the consequent medical treatment and diagnosis limiting surgery only for elderlies, who due to its general status and the bleeding extent or persistence be impossible its carrying out when there is a failure of endoscopic and/or pharmacologic treatment.
