Prevention of stress ulcer

The indication prevention of stress ulcer refers to prophylactic therapy aimed at preventing stress-related mucosal disease and acute erosive gastritis in vulnerable inpatient populations, primarily critically ill adults and children in intensive care units This pathophysiologic state can lead to rapidly developing, multiple superficial erosions or deep focal ulcerations of the gastric and duodenal mucosa

The indication prevention of stress ulcer refers to prophylactic therapy aimed at preventing stress-related mucosal disease and acute erosive gastritis in vulnerable inpatient populations, primarily critically ill adults and children in intensive care units Prophylaxis targets the gastrointestinal system to avert clinically significant upper gastrointestinal bleeding, hemodynamic instability, and perforation associated with these lesions

Severe systemic physiologic stress—such as shock, sepsis, extensive burns, severe trauma, coagulopathy, or prolonged mechanical ventilation—impairs gastric microcirculation and weakens protective mucosal barriers against gastric acid Prophylaxis targets the gastrointestinal system to avert clinically significant upper gastrointestinal bleeding, hemodynamic instability, and perforation associated with these lesions
