Clinical Outcomes of Terlipressin Using Continuous Infusion Versus Bolus in Patients With Acute Variceal Hemorrhage–A Randomized Controlled Trial
There was no difference in length of hospital stay, packed cell volume, rebleeding, and mortality between both modes of terlipressin administration. Somewhat better improvement in systolic blood pressure was observed in patients who received a continuous infusion of terlipressin without any impact on clinical outcomes.
