What should I do if rectal cancer causes jet-like bleeding?
Rectal cancer patients often experience bleeding, which is a common clinical manifestation. When patients exhibit spurting bleeding, we can adopt the following treatment strategies:
Firstly, patients should refrain from eating, as food stimulation can exacerbate the bleeding;
Secondly, patients should be administered some medications for hemostasis. When the effect of medical hemostasis is insufficient, we can employ interventional methods, or vascular embolization techniques for hemostasis;
Thirdly, when the patient's bleeding volume is large, blood transfusions should be given to improve the patient's anemia;
If the patient experiences shock due to bleeding, in addition to blood transfusion treatment, it is also necessary to provide fluid supplementation to ensure the overall volume status of the patient;
Fifthly, when the effect of medical hemostasis is poor, surgical intervention is required to carry out hemostasis.
