Mo1310 OVER-THE-SCOPE CLIP AS FIRST-LINE THERAPY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF HIGH RISK BLEEDING PEPTIC-ULCERS: A CASE-MATCH CONTROL STUDY

Abstract:

Methods A retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected data in consecutive patients who presented with HR ulcer GI-bleeding between May-2014 and September 2018. High-risk upper GI bleeding was considered as those ulcers located in a major arterial territory, if the lesion had an endoscopically visible large-caliber artery (> 2 mm), if there was a fibrotic ulcer with high-risk endoscopic stigmata (Forrest classification types I and II). The primary endpoint was the incidence of rebleeding or perforation within 30 days of index endoscopy. Patients were excluded if they had bleeding caused by varices, received OTSC for fistula or tissue defect closure or if the bleeding did not meet the criteria for HR ulcer bleeding.
