Summary

This is a prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluating the optimal timing of endoscopy in patients with coronary heart disease who are taking antiplatelet drugs and present with acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: an urgent endoscopy group (undergoing endoscopy within 12 hours of hospital admission) or an early endoscopy group (undergoing endoscopy between 12 and 24 hours after admission). All patients will receive standard medical treatment for upper gastrointestinal bleeding and antiplatelet management in accordance with current clinical guidelines.

The primary outcome of this study is the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 30 days between the two groups. Secondary outcomes include further bleeding events, all-cause mortality, length of hospital stay, and the need for blood transfusion during the follow-up period.

This research aims to generate evidence-based clinical guidance on the safest and most effective endoscopy timing for this high-risk patient population.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Urgent Endoscopy (Within 12 Hours of Admission)

PROCEDURE

Early Endoscopy (12-24 Hours After Admission)

Early endoscopy performed between 12 and 24 hours after the patient is admitted to the hospital, used to diagnose and treat acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
