Filter by:This is a multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, open-label, exploratory clinical investigation performed to evaluate safety and effectiveness of the PillSense System when used for detection of blood in the stomach of patients suspected to have an Upper Gastrointestinal Bleed (UGIB).
Acute Variceal Bleeding (AVB) in patients with liver cirrhosis is a common clinical critical disease. There is little evidence for the effect of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use in patients with AVB, and there is no study on the efficacy of PPI combined with standard therapy in patients with AVB.
The RE-BLEED feasibility study aims to develop and test a real-time digital platform, whereby bleeding patients in-hospital can be identified and approached for their consent to participate in future research studies.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare resuscitation strategies in patients with cirrhosis and gastrointestinal bleeding. The main question it aims to answer is whether thromboelastography guided resuscitation decreased the amount of fresh frozen plasma patients receive. Patients will receive blood products guided by thromboelastography in the intervention group. Researchers will compare the patients who undergo thromboelastography guided resuscitation to those who receive usual care to see which strategy leads to the use of less blood products, specifically less fresh frozen plasma.
This study is a pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of a clinician-facing implementation strategy on the use of medication optimization (defined as either discontinuation of all antiplatelet therapy or initiation of and adherence to a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)) to reduce upper GI bleeding risk in patients prescribed anticoagulant-antiplatelet therapy (AAT) relative to usual care.
Guided by clinical problems, this study focused on the problems encountered in clinical practice, with the interventional treatment of emergency gastrointestinal bleeding as the breakthrough point, and focused on the dilemma of treatment selection for patients with negative angiography in gastrointestinal bleeding. At present, there is no report on relevant clinical and basic research on the selection of treatment strategies for patients with negative ANVUGIB angiography. Whether prophylactic arterial embolization can benefit patients and whether it can reduce mortality is an urgent clinical problem to be solved.
Despite advances in gastrointestinal endoscopy and pharmaceuticals, gastrointestinal bleeding is still a significant emergency disease with a high mortality rate of 1.9-5 per 100 people due to excessive bleeding and shock. There are several indicators using pulse rate, blood pressure, hemoglobin, etc. to select patients who require endoscopic intervention, or hospitalization, but these are inaccurate and with a high false-positive rate and low specificity at 35-40%. Therefore, tests with high diagnostic accuracy for gastrointestinal bleeding patients are required and findings specific biomarkers for gastrointestinal bleeding are of great importance.
This study will engage patients and families to create a definition of what matters most to them about upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. This information will help to define the outcome of "patient-important GI bleeding" which is a secondary endpoint for the ongoing international randomized trial REVISE (NCT03374800), comparing acid suppression versus no acid suppression in the intensive care unit (ICU). Other outcomes in REVISE are clinically important upper GI bleeding, mortality, pneumonia and Clostridioides difficile infection. Guided by patient and family input, a series of open-ended questions will elicit patient and family views about what matters most about this complication in interviews and focus groups. The investigators will develop the definition of "patient-important GI bleeding" by analyzing interview and focus group transcripts of critically ill survivors and family members of critically ill patients who may or may not have had GI bleeding, and who were not enrolled in the REVISE trial. Patient and family perspectives (anticipated to be different from what clinicians consider to be clinically important GI bleeding), will be used to refine a new trial outcome for research on GI bleeding in the intensive care unit (ICU). Also, study results will help clinicians understand how to better support patients and families; to explain testing and treatment options when GI bleeding occurs in practice in the ICU.
This study is to evaluate the incidence rate of Major Adverse CardioCerebrovascular Events(MACCE) in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome or Cerebral Infarction Who Received DAPT for the secondary prevention and Esomezol Cap for the prevention of gastrointestinal bleeding.
In the field of pediatric gastroenterology, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy has established itself as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. In order to increase patient tolerance during this procedure, deep sedation is essential. Children are at a higher risk of serious adverse effects from procedural sedation; thus, their safety is a primary issue throughout this procedure. Multiple studies have been done to find the ideal method for procedural sedation in terms of ease of administration, quality, safety of sedation and recovery profile, but the consensus seems lacking. In this study we will compare between nasal inhalation of sevoflurane versus intravenous ketamine, midazolam and propofol for pediatrics undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
