A 74-year-old arrived at the ED experiencing bright red rectal bleeding when using the toilet. She does not have any abdominal pain, no nausea or vomiting. She has been undergoing dialysis for
years due to end-stage renal failure and has a diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome with a platelet count of just 3,000. Her hemoglobin level, which was 10 at her dialysis session the
previous day, dropped to 7. Abdominal films are negative. An urgent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) was performed, and no active bleeding was found in the esophagus or the stomach.
However, the scope was passed into the upper duodenum which did reveal some oozing, and was controlled with cautery. Next, the patient was then positioned on her left side for a
colonoscopy that extended from the colon to the ileum and into the lower duodenum, but no definitive sources of bleeding were found. Again, no outright bleeding sources were identified. A
CRNA performed the anesthesia and documented PS III.
