Gastrointestinal Pain

This Simulated Patient Encounter maps to Scenario MED 29 – Taylor Westfield – Gastrointestinal Bleed on the Elsevier Evolve Platform

Taylor Westfield is a 32-year-old Caucasian female with a history of warfarin therapy due to a mechanical heart valve. She was admitted after her scheduled doctor’s appointment for warfarin regulation. Taylor reported that she had woken up with mid upper gastric pain and “dark emesis” after eating breakfast. During this scenario, learners must assess, prioritize, and manage care for this patient.
