Peptic ulcers can cause big complications—and the key to mastering them is knowing the differences. In this episode, Dr. Morgan Taylor, DNP, CPNP, CCRN, walks you through the causes, symptoms, and treatments of gastric and duodenal ulcers.
We’ll cover:
The role of H. pylori and NSAIDs in ulcer formation
Symptom differences: why gastric ulcers hurt after meals and duodenal ulcers hurt when the stomach is empty
Case study practice with a real-world client scenario
NCLEX-style practice question + answer breakdown
Medications to know: PPIs, H2 blockers, and sucralfate (aka the “band-aid” for ulcers)
