Training exercises for emergency hemorrhaging situations that require immediate treatment. This module is particularly vital due to the unpredictable nature of bleeding situations in the upper GI tract and the difficulty of training for such incidents.

The 10 varied cases in the module, created in collaboration with Doctors Sven Adamsen and Soeren Meisner of Bispebjerg Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark, enable the performance of:

• Complete surveys of the upper gastrointestinal tract through emergency endoscopy
• Diagnostic procedures for patients who demonstrate symptoms of bleeding
• Therapeutic procedures using various accessories geared for bleeding pathologies

The cases include: bleeding ulcers, bleeding tumor, Dieulafoy's lesion, Mallory-Weiss tear, spurting artery, blood oozing from clot edges and protruding submucosal vessels.

The module is equipped with several accessories used in bleeding situations including: a spray catheter, bipolar coagulation probe, injection needle and a cold snare.
