ask!

Concerning GIB
 Active

Hgb after transfusion (1 unit pRBCs should bump
Hgb by 1-1.5 g/dL)
 Change in mental status or symptomatic
anemia
 REMEMBER!
Blood is a laxative.
Hemodynamically-significant GI blood loss will
present itself.

Your covering the Dworken team pager on NF when
you are paged by nursing about a 36 y/o F with a h/o
ulcerative colitis who is having multiple, small-volume
bloody bowel movements. She has been taking
Keflex for the past week for a soft tissue infection.
