Comparing Two Methods to Stop Vomiting of Blood Using the Endoscope

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Band ligation and injection sclerotherapy are two modalities of treatment that are applied using the endoscope. The purpose of this study is to determine which of two methods is better for controlling bleeding from the upper gut.

Clinical Trial Description

The use of band ligation for endoscopy during the attack of hematemesis is a novel practice as opposed to injection sclerotherapy. ;
