CPC 4.2.5: Feeling dreadful…!
• Worsening abdominal pain. 12h, sudden, 9/10.• Cramping constant, severe, Nausea, vomiting, NSAID.• Blood in vomit, 8kg loss/3m, dark stool 2m.• Heart burn, NSAID use (backpain), stress, 10 cig/day, • Pale, sweaty, HR 125, faint pulse, BP 90/56 – shock*Differential Diagnosis: (acute compl.)• Perforated ulcer, Gastric Ca, Apendicitis, Dirverticulitis.• Acute Cholecystitis, Pancreatitis, Ruptured aneurysm. Investigations:• WBC 33.3, Hb 8.2, MCV 80, urea/creat, Lipase Nor.• USS – free fluid, X-Ray – free air shadow.
CASE STUDY: Mr E.K. 55-year-old Torres Strait Islander man. “I had a bit of a pain in my gut yesterday but today it is much worse and I feel really dreadful”.

• Gram negative, Spirochete.• Does not invade cells • Colonize Acidic Gastric mucosa only * • Protease Break down mucous expose
epithelium for digestion + urea.• Urease Breakdown urea ammonia
neutralise acid reflex Hyperacidity.• Chronic infl. Gastric Metaplasia Ulceration.• Complications: Bleeding, perforation, stenosis,
Carcinoma.

PUD - Diagnosis• Endoscopy – findings• Barium meal – contrast• Endoscopy, Biopsy/cytology, stains.• Culture – difficult – for research only.• HP fecal antigen test• Monoclonal antibody test on stool samples.
Specific (98%) and sensitive (94%). • C13 urea breath test – Radioactive – common.• H.pylori serology – IgG – new.

Peptic Ulcer Morphology:• Common in duodenum than stomach (4:1)• > 80% single ulcer• Round small, clean,• punched out, <2cm*.• Radiating folds.• Microscopy:
– Superficial necrotic layer.– Inflammatory cells zone.– Granulation tissue zone - B– Collagenous scar zone - C.
Note: Radiating mucosal folds from the ulcer.. Why?
