Abstract
Introduction: high digestive bleeding represents one of the most frequent causes of morbidity and mortality in the General Surgery Services. It constitutes a very frequent medical-surgical emergency. Objective: to characterize clinically hospitalized patients with high digestive bleeding in the General Teaching Hospital Ciro Redondo GarcÃa in Artemisa, in 2020. Methods: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in the General Teaching Hospital Ciro Redondo GarcÃa in Artemisa, in 2020. The universe consisted of 71 patients with diagnosis of high digestive bleeding attended in the General Surgery Services. During the period of time indicated above. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: patients over 60 years of age predominated, with males being the most affected with 47 cases for 66,2 %. Peptic ulcer was the most common pathological history with 54,9 %. The predisposing factor that occurred most frequently was coffee consumption with 52 patients. The majority of patients studied did not consume non-steroidal antinflammatory drugs. The most frequent form of presentation was mane with 81,7 %. Conclusions: The results were similar to the international and national trends, the predominant sex was male and the age over 60 years old. Peptic ulcer was the most frequent pathological antecedent. Coffee consumption can cause the triggering of this pathology. Most of the studied patients did not consume non steroid antinflammatory. The most common form of clinical presentation was the mane.
