Age, history of GI bleeding, and implantation as destination therapy are strong risk factors for GI bleeding during LVAD therapy. 6, 13 We did not find an association of age, frequency of GI bleeding, or LVAD support duration with refractoriness to octreotide therapy, which was assessed by freedom from an event during 6-months of octreotide

The results showed that the effect of octreotide infusion in controlling acute upper GI bleeding appeared to be not different between the variceal and non-
Sandostatin (octreotide acetate) may help treat certain types of bleeding in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract through various mechanisms
Initial assessment of all patients with GI bleeding should, as expected, start with ABC's. Octreotide for acute esophageal variceal bleeding:
Pro: Yes, octreotide does have an important role in the treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding of unknown origin. Yaseen Arabi and Bandar Al Knawy. There is evidence to support the use of octreotide in variceal and non-variceal upper GI bleeding (UGB).
Octreotide, thalidomide and ethinyl estradiol are the drugs reported in literature for GI bleed secondary to AVMs. Octreotide was effective in helping to resume oral anticoagulation (OAC) for atrial fibrillation (AFib) without further serious GI bleeds and helped in reduced transfusion requirements in 100% of the patients.
