Filter by:Conventional supplemental oxygen therapy (COT) during upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy via nasal catheter is considered the standard practice in maintenance of oxygenation and prevention of hypoxia. However, it is still unclear if this oxygen delivery method is optimal in a prolonged (more than 15 minutes) procedure in patients admitted to the ICU. Because of shortage of data in this concern, this prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial study will aim to evaluate and compare the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy versus COT in patients who will undergo prolonged either diagnostic or therapeutic UGI endoscopy in the intensive care unit (ICU) .
Gastrointestinal bleeding is a condition that frequently presents to emergency departments and can be fatal if diagnosis and treatment are delayed. The working mechanism of end tidal capnography is simply to detect the respiratory carbon dioxide level. In our study, the investigators aimed to determine the severity of gastrointestinal bleeding by using the Glaskow Blachford Score and AIMS65 score in cases presenting with gastrointestinal bleeding, to determine the end tidal carbon dioxide value by capnography in these cases and to determine its effectiveness in evaluating mortality and morbidity in gastrointestinal bleeding.
BACKGROUND: Data on the awareness of the need to evaluate iron status and IDA prevalence in acute UGIB are limited. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the rate of evaluation of iron status and prevalence of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and the associated factors in patients with anemia hospitalized for acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB).
A prospective, randomized, double-blind study will be conducted, including all patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding, defined as vomiting blood or black bowel movements, within 12 hours prior to admission. Patients will be randomized to receive intravenous metoclopramide 20 mg or placebo, a placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug. Then endoscopy will be performed in the following 120 minutes, evaluating endoscopic visualization with the modified Avgerinos scale.
The purpose of this pilot clinical trial is to confirm the efficacy and safety of Nexpowder™ for hemostasis in pilot cohort of patients with NVUGIB in Singapore
In this study, it was aimed to compare the frequency of new oral anticoagulants and warfarin usage, and to reveal the rates of recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding among patients who applied to our hospital with upper gastrointestinal bleeding
The Comprehensive HHT Outcomes Registry of the United States (CHORUS) is an observational registry of patients diagnosed with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT). The purpose of this study is to better understand HHT, the symptoms and complications it causes, and the impact the disease has on people's lives. The investigators will collect long-term information about the participant, allowing us to understand how the disease changes over time, and what factors can influence those changes. Ultimately, this should help improve treatments for the disease. Another important goal of the study is to provide a way to contact people to participate in future clinical trials and other research. The registry will be a centralized resource for recruitment for clinical trials. People in the registry will not be obligated to join any of these additional studies, but if interested, can agree to be contacted if they may be eligible for a study. Participants will: - Be asked to provide permission to collect information from their medical records, including things like demographic information, diagnosis information, family history, test results, treatment information, symptoms, complications, lifestyle and other relevant medical information. - Be asked study-related questions by phone or at a clinic visit. - Be asked study-related questions every year after enrollment for up to 10 years or until the study ends. A member of the study team will communicate with participants by phone or at clinic visits to collect information regarding any changes to their health over the previous year/s including new test results, treatment information, symptoms, and complications from HHT.
The main goal of this study is to assess whether the diagnostic efficacy of enema is non-inferior to that of oral polyethylene glycol (PEG) in acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding (ALGIB) patients requiring urgent colonoscopy. The secondary objectives include: 1) evaluating potential differences between the enema and oral PEG groups in terms of the difficulty and safety of colonoscopy, as well as exacerbation of bleeding; 2) conducting subgroup analyses to compare the effectiveness of the two bowel preparation methods in specific populations, exploring potential candidate groups for different bowel preparation strategies, and promoting individualized diagnosis and treatment for ALGIB.
Liver cirrhosis is a common diffuse and persistent liver disease often accompanied by portal hypertension, liver failure, upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB), and other complications. The incidence rate of liver cirrhosis with UGIB is as high as 30-40%, which is related to the rupture bleeding of gastroesophageal varices (GOV), hepatogenic ulcer, portal hypertensive gastropathy, hepatic gastrointestinal failure, etc
Controlled-randomized trial evaluating single-use versus reusable gastroscopes in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
