Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate of efficacy and safety as H.pylori eradiation effect between Ilaprazole and Pantoprazole triple therapy for 7 days treatment in Gastric and/or Duodenal ulcer patients with H.pylori positive infection.
Endoscopic high-frequency soft coagulation is available for the management of bleeding or nonbleeding visible vessels during endoscopic submucosal dissection. However, its efficacy on peptic ulcer bleeding has not been elucidated so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of hemostasis with soft coagulation using hemostatic forceps by comparing it with argon plasma coagulation (APC) in a prospective, randomized trial.
Aims: 1. Evaluate the long-term effect of screening and eradication of Helicobacter Pylori on the prevalence of dyspepsia, and, as secondary outcomes, to assess the effect on dyspepsia related health-care consumption and quality of life. 2. To investigate symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux (GER), dyspepsia and the combination of these conditions and the effect on quality of life, prognosis and dyspepsia-related health care expenditure. Methods: In 1998-99 20.000 individuals, age 40-65 years, identified by their civil registration number, were allocated by a computerized randomized procedure to HP-screening group and control group. All participants received a questionnaire at inclusion, 1-year and 5-year and now again at 12 year follow-up assessing the prevalence of dyspepsia and quality of life. In addition we will obtain information from registers on, comorbidity, use of endoscopies and prescription medication. An economic evaluation is done alongside the randomized trial. The primary unscreened group is invited to HP test (13C-urea breath-test) in order to analyze the effect of HP-screening according to HP-status Expected results: The study will provide information on the long-term effect of HP-screening and eradication in a population. The study will provide information about the long-term effect on incidence of peptic ulcer in an aging population that is likely to have an increased consumption of ASA and NSAID. Furthermore the study will generate knowledge about the long-term prognosis of dyspepsia and reflux in the population (dyspepsia and reflux. Preliminary results from the 5-yr follow-up (13) showed that is has a great influence on quality of life and the dyspepsia-related health care consumption, whether the individual has solely reflux, solely dyspepsia or a combination of both symptoms. Long-term follow-up and further analyses of these findings could have great impact on management and treatment of individuals with symptoms. It is important to focus on groups; in which the symptoms have the greatest influence on quality of life of the individual. This finding has not been displayed in other studies.
The primary objective is to investigate the adverse events during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with and without sedation in Chinese population
The aim of this study is to assess the role of portal hypertension of peptic ulcer disease in liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis.
The analyses are conducted in a previous population-based cohort study using The Health Improvement Network database in the UK (Cai et al 2009).The aims of the post hoc analyses are: To estimate the relative risk of uncomplicated symptomatic peptic ulcer (UPU) associated with use of low dose aspirin (ASA) and other anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, steroids) in the general population To estimate the dose-response and duration-response associated with use of these drugs To estimate the relative risk of UPU associated with naive/non-naive use of low dose ASA in the general population To evaluate the effect of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) (alone or in combination with anti-inflammatory drugs) on the occurrence of UPU in the general population To investigate the management of low dose ASA/oral antiplatelets after UPU
The purpose of this study is to investigate if a computerised decision-support tool used in general practice, can reduce the frequency of peptic ulcer bleeding related to the use of NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal-antiinflammatory-drug) and ASA( Acetylsalicylic acid) . On the basis of "The Danish general medical database" it is possible to develope a computerised decision-support tool, which enables the general practitioner (GP) in a "pop-up" window to get information on each patients risk-factors, when prescribing NSAID and aspirin to a patient at risk. This will give the general practitioner the oppurtunity to choose a different type of preparation or prescribe ulcer-preventive medicine at the same time. The decision-support tool will be tested in a randomized trial among general practitioners. The aim is to reduce the occurence of peptic ulcer bleeding. The expected outcome is a reduction in half of the total numbers of peptic ulcers.
Patients who underwent major gastrointestinal surgery is potentially at risk of malnutrition due to reduced oral intake, increased nutritional need, reduced gastrointestinal absorption function, and/or metabolic changes after surgery. The postoperative malnutrition is associated with low quality of life and seems to be related long-term nutritional status. This study is a multicenter, open-labeled prospective randomized clinical trial to examine the effect of postoperative oral nutritional supplements (ONS) after major gastrointestinal surgery by comparing the change of body weight and other nutritional parameters between the experiment group that is supplied with ONS and the control group without ONS.
Carbohydrate enriched-drinks has been used as preoperative treatment up to two hours before anesthesia. These drinks are safe and are not associated to bronchial aspiration during anesthesia. The addition of protein may be beneficial for metabolic preconditioning but there is a few data in literature testing these drinks for safety. The aim of the study will be to investigate the residual gastric volume (RGV) measured during the gastroscopy with abbreviation of fast to 2h with a carbohydrate plus whey protein enriched-drink.
To test whether intravenous albumin can decrease the rebleeding rate or shorten the duration of hospitalization in patients with peptic ulcer bleeding and hypoalbuminemia.
