Summary

The present study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that examines if the outcome of peptic ulcer bleeding could be improved by use of doppler-guided endoscopic treatment.

Conditions

  • Peptic Ulcer Bleeding

Interventions

DEVICE

Supplementary endoscopy with doppler-guided therapy

Patients randomized to supplementary doppler-guided therapy undergo repeat endoscopy with doppler evaluation within 24 hours from the primary endoscopy. At the control endoscopy the ulcer base is examined using a doppler device. If active doppler flow is demonstrated the ulcer is treated with a thermal probe until a control doppler-scan is negative. All patients are observed for rebleeding at a specialized GI-bleeding unit.

DRUG

IV. PPI

All patients receive 80mg of Esomeprazole iv as a bolus followed by 8mg Esomeprazole per hour for 72 hours.

OTHER

Endoscopic treatment at primary endoscopy

All patients are initially treated with endoscopic therapy using a minimum of two different treatment modalities. The primary endoscopy is performed wihtin 24 hours from time of admission to hospital
