At Mirus Critical Care Centre, our Gastro Medicine Department specializes in diagnosing and treating various gastrointestinal conditions. While many gastrointestinal conditions are not inherently life-threatening, there are certain situations where urgent intervention and treatment are required to prevent potential complications or risks. Our gastroenterologists are trained to manage such cases, which may include:
Gastrointestinal bleeding can occur due to various reasons, such as peptic ulcers, diverticulosis, esophageal varices, or gastrointestinal tumors. Severe or uncontrolled bleeding can be life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention. Our gastroenterologists employ endoscopic procedures, such as endoscopic hemostasis or band ligation, to stop bleeding and manage the underlying cause.
Bowel obstruction occurs when there is a blockage in the intestines, preventing the normal passage of food and waste. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications, including bowel perforation or ischemia. Our gastroenterologists work to identify the cause of the obstruction and provide appropriate interventions, such as endoscopic dilation or surgical intervention, to relieve the obstruction and restore normal bowel function.
Acute pancreatitis is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas that can cause severe abdominal pain, organ failure, and life-threatening complications. Our gastroenterologists provide immediate evaluation and management for acute pancreatitis, which may involve supportive care, pain management, nutritional support, and, in severe cases, intensive care unit (ICU) management.
Advanced liver diseases, such as acute liver failure, decompensated cirrhosis, or severe alcoholic hepatitis, can be life-threatening. Our gastroenterologists specialize in managing these conditions, providing comprehensive medical management, monitoring liver function, and, when necessary, coordinating liver transplantation evaluations and care.
Gastrointestinal perforation refers to a hole or tear in the wall of the digestive tract. It can occur due to conditions like peptic ulcers, diverticulitis, or gastrointestinal tumors. Gastrointestinal perforation is a medical emergency and requires immediate intervention to prevent infection and peritonitis. Our gastroenterologists work swiftly to diagnose and manage the perforation, which may involve surgical repair and supportive care.

It's important to note that the specific treatment and management of these life-threatening gastro medicine conditions will depend on the individual patient's situation and requirements. Our gastroenterologists work closely with other medical professionals, emergency departments, and specialized teams to ensure comprehensive and coordinated care.
