Filter by:Patients with comorbidities have an increased risk of ulcer re-bleeding, especially within the 14 days after first bleeding event. Three-day high dose esomeprazole infusion can prevent peptic ulcer rebleeding after endoscopic therapy. However, the optimal dose of oral esomeprazole is uncertain, especially for high risky patients. This study is to test whether a double dose of oral esomprazole could reduce peptic ulcer rebleeding for patients with Rockall score ≥ 6. Additionally, the second aim of this prospective study was to identify the selection criteria to predict poor fading and residual major stigmata of recent hemorrhage (SRH) or early recurrent bleeding after successful endoscopic hemostasis and high-dose PPI infusion.
In a prospective randomised study design to investigate, if a systematic risk factor screening for bleeding ulcer in patients, who following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) commence a one year combination treatment with low dose aspirin and clopidogrel, followed by prophylactic treatment with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) in case of increased risk, can reduce the risk of bleeding ulcer. Based on the recently raised suspicion that PPI's, possibly except pantoprazole, reduce the effect of ADP-receptor inhibitors, pantoprazole has been chosen as prophylaxis in the screening group, and analyses will be done to ascertain whether PPI treatment increases the risk of coronary events. Further analyses will be made to see whether PPI prophylaxis in high risk patients can increase compliance with the antithrombotic treatment through a reduction of side effects, thereby reducing the risk of myocardial infarction in particular stent thrombosis. The study population will be analyzed further to identify the patients, who will benefit the most from PPI prophylaxis Hypothesis: screening heart patients for risk factors for bleeding ulcer and subsequently treating high risk patients with PPI can reduce the incidence of bleeding ulcer and increase compliance with the antithrombotic treatment; thereby possibly reducing the risk of coronary events and improving survival. Initial a description of the prevalence of risk factors will be done.
The objective of this study is to show that Hemospray is effective in achieving initial hemostasis and documenting rate of further bleed when compared to standard of care.
This will be a multicenter prospective observational study carried out in China. The investigators will collect data in a pre-specified Case Report Form. Main data from each patient will include demographics, endoscopy classification, and both endoscopy and pharmacological treatments received by patients. Data from each patient will be prospectively collected from the day the patient is diagnosed as peptic ulcer bleeding by endoscopy and receives endoscopy treatment if the investigator thinks it is needed and up to 30 days afterwards. The proportion of peptic ulcer bleeding patients who are at high risk is the primary outcome variable. High risk is defined as the patients with endoscopy Forrest classification Ia to IIb. The rate and type of endoscopic treatment, the rate of successful endoscopy treatment, the re-bleeding rate and the endoscopic re-treatment rate in high risk peptic ulcer bleeding patients will be collected. The surgery rate and mortality rate in high risk and overall patient population will be calculated.
The aim of this study is to determine if early angiographic embolization can forestall recurrent bleeding in selected high risk ulcers after their initial endoscopic control; to validate prospectively the investigators proposed in selecting high risk ulcers for recurrent bleeding in spite of maximal endoscopic control and profound acid suppression using high dose intravenous infusion of proton pump inhibitor; to characterize the nature of bleeding arteries in severely bleeding peptic ulcers and determine the efficacy of angiographic embolization in the prevention of recurrent bleeding and to establish safety profile of angiographic embolization as an early elective treatment to bleeding peptic ulcers.
Peptic ulcer bleeding is a common disorder. Despite optimal endoscopic and medical treatment, there is a high risk of rebleeding and high mortality. In this study the investigators examine whether combined endoscopic haemostasis and angiographic embolization resolves in a better outcome than the traditional use of endoscopic haemostasis alone. The study is a randomised controlled trail.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether adherence to NVUGIB guidelines is improved with implementation of a national, tailored multifaceted intervention. Outcomes include adherence rates to two key endoscopic and pharmacological therapy guidelines together (primary), or adherence to these individually as well as to other recommendations (secondary). Patient outcomes and economic data are also assessed (tertiary).
A large dose of PPI is effective in preventing peptic ulcer rebleeding. The investigators hypothesize that 40 mg/q6h pantoloc is equivalent to 8mg/h pantoloc in preventing rebleeding.
Patients with bleeding ulcers identified by endoscopy will be randomly assigned to receive an acid-blocking drug (called a proton pump inhibitor [PPI]) either by mouth every 3 hours for 24 hours or intravenously (IV) by constant infusion for 24 hours. A pH probe in the stomach will be used to determine intragastric pH (a measure of the acid production in the stomach) at baseline and during the 24 hours of therapy. The purpose of the study is to determine if the continuous intravenous administration of the drug provides better reduction of acid in the stomach than the oral administration.
Bleeding peptic ulcers are one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality for hospital emergency admissions.The initial treatment is endoscopic therapy followed by intravenous omeprazole. However the optimal dosage of omeprazole is not known. We conducted this study to find out the optimal dosage in such clinical scenario.
