No results posted yet for this study

Summary

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.

Conditions
