here you go...step by step
octreotide---> endoscopy with sclerotherapy/band ligation---(fails)--> balloon tamponade and plan for TIPS---> discharge on propranolol
consider liver transplant .. check child's criteria...

if you cannot choose balloon tamponade and TIPS ..then this how far FSMB wants us to go with the management..
also band ligation is not available..only available option is sclerotherapy...
you go with what is available...
