Composite Endpoint [ Time Frame: Meassured after a week from primary therapeutic endoscopy ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Patients are classified into groups depending on the worst outcome:

  1. No clinical signs of rebleeding and requirement of two or less blood transfusions after circulatory stabilization and obtained hemoglobin > 5,9mmol/L.
  2. No clinical signs of rebleeding and requirement of more than two blood transfusions after circulatory stabilization and obtained hemoglobin > 5,9mmol/L.
  3. Rebleeding and achieved secondary haemostasis by endoscopy or angiographic embolization.
  4. Rebleeding requiring surgery.
  5. Patients who have died.

Results are compared using the Wilcoxon rank sum test.

Supplementary Angiographic Embolization for Peptic Ulcer Bleeding
Supplementary Angiographic Embolization for Peptic Ulcer Bleeding: A Randomized Controlled Trial

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.

Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Peptic Ulcer Hemorrhage
  • Procedure: Angiographic embolization
    Patients in the intervention arm receive supplementary angiographic embolization within 24 hours from the therapeutic endoscopy.
    Other Names:
    • Therapeutic angiography
    • Arterial embolization
    • Transcatheter arterial embolization
    • Embolization
  • Procedure: Therapeutic endoscopy
    Patients are treated with standard therapeutic upper endoscopy including endoscopic combination therapy.
  • Active Comparator: Intervention group
    Patients in this group are treated with usual therapeutic endoscopy including endoscopic combination therapy and 72 hours intravenous proton pump inhibitor. Within 24 hours from the therapeutic endoscopy they receive supplementary angiographic embolization.
    Intervention: Procedure: Angiographic embolization
  • Active Comparator: Control group
    Patients in this arm receive standard treatment including therapeutic endoscopy with endoscopic combination therapy followed by 72 hours intravenous proton pump inhibitor.
    Intervention: Procedure: Therapeutic endoscopy
