Test the CAGIB score to predict death in cirrhosis with bleeding
This study checks whether a score called CAGIB can accurately predict the risk of dying during the hospital stay for people with cirrhosis who have sudden bleeding in the digestive tract. It may help doctors identify who needs the most urgent care and monitor outcomes more accurately.
Scranton, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04902248Recruiting
Compare two procedures for hard-to-stop upper stomach bleeding
This trial studies whether a newer “OTSC” procedure works as well as a standard procedure called angiographic embolization to stop active, hard-to-control upper gastrointestinal bleeding. It may help people whose bleeding continues or comes back even after initial endoscopy treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06188585Recruiting
New blue dye vs standard treatment for upper GI bleeding
This study tests a new blue dye spray (UI-EWD) versus standard endoscopy treatment for people with active upper GI bleeding. The goal is to see if the dye helps doctors find and stop bleeding more effectively.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 22 years+ - NCT06881628RecruitingPhase 4
Tranexamic acid and vitamin K for bleeding in cirrhosis
This trial tests if giving tranexamic acid and vitamin K by injection can help control bleeding from the upper digestive tract in people with liver cirrhosis. It may offer a way to stop bleeding more quickly.
Tanta, GharbyeaAges 18 years+ - NCT06896409Recruiting
PuraStat and adrenaline vs standard care for upper GI bleeding
This trial tests whether a gel called PuraStat, used together with adrenaline, works better than standard care to stop bleeding in the upper digestive system. It may help people who need an endoscopic procedure to treat non-variceal bleeding.
LleidaAges 18 years+ - NCT06951490Enrolling by invitation
PillSense study for anemia and blood in stool
This trial tests a special pill that can be swallowed to help find the cause of anemia or hidden blood in the stool, without the need for more invasive tests. It is for patients who are already in the hospital and have been referred to a gastroenterologist.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06680583Recruiting
Predicting recovery in cirrhosis with GI bleeding
This study looks at simple body measurements (like blood pressure and heart rate) to help predict how well people with cirrhosis (liver damage) who are having bleeding in their stomach or intestines will recover. It may help doctors make better treatment decisions.
TainanAges Any age - NCT05949268Recruiting
Video capsule test to find bleeding in the small intestine
This trial studies whether a swallowable camera capsule can detect bleeding in the small intestine when standard scopes (up the stomach and through the colon) haven’t found the cause. If your bleeding source is suspected but not seen on those tests, this could help identify where the bleeding is coming from.
Freiburg im BreisgauAges 18 years+ - NCT07333144Recruiting
Bleeding from the gut while on blood thinners
This study collects information from patients who come to the emergency room with gastrointestinal bleeding while taking certain newer blood thinners. It aims to better understand and manage this type of bleeding.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06697691Recruiting
Predicting rebleeding risk after upper gut bleeding
This study aims to create a tool that helps doctors predict if a patient with upper gut bleeding (not from veins) will rebleed while still in the hospital. It uses information from your hospital stay to better understand your risk and improve care.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06031402Recruiting
Best time for endoscopy for liver cirrhosis bleeding
This study is testing the best timing for an endoscopy (a tube with a camera used to look inside your digestive system) in people with liver cirrhosis and bleeding from enlarged veins. It aims to improve outcomes for patients with this type of emergency bleeding.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT06515353Recruiting
Gastrointestinal bleeding and atmospheric pressure study
This study looks at how changes in atmospheric pressure might affect gastrointestinal bleeding. If you have had bleeding from your stomach or intestines and live in central Ankara, this trial could help doctors understand if weather plays a role.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18 years+ - NCT05290857Recruiting
Restarting blood thinners after a serious stomach bleed
This study follows people who had a serious, non-surgical stomach/intestine bleed while taking a blood thinner, and looks at when and how they restart a DOAC (a type of blood thinner). It may help your care team reduce the risk of another bleed while still preventing stroke or blood clots.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06500468Recruiting
A capsule test for suspected upper GI bleeding
This trial tests a new ingestible capsule called PillSense that can detect bleeding in the upper part of your digestive system. If you come to the emergency room with signs of upper GI bleeding (like vomiting coffee-ground material or having black stools) but without obvious black stool on a physical exam, this study will see if the capsule works as well as the usual endoscopy procedure.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT07687706RecruitingPhase 3
Tegoprazan to prevent stomach problems after stroke
This study tests a stomach-protecting medicine called tegoprazan for people who have had a stroke and are starting antiplatelet therapy. It aims to prevent stomach complications like ulcers or bleeding.
Busan, BusanAges 19 years+ - NCT05108844Recruiting
Testing a camera swallow exam for recent upper gut bleeding
This study tests whether a “videocapsule endoscopy” (a small camera you swallow) can find the cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding when a first scope doesn’t show active bleeding. It may help doctors locate hidden bleeding sources and guide treatment.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–90 - NCT07479056Recruiting
Fexuprazan to prevent stomach bleeding in heart patients on two blood thinners
This trial tests whether fexuprazan can prevent upper gastrointestinal bleeding in people at high risk who need two antiplatelet drugs for at least 6 months after a heart stent. If you are on dual antiplatelet therapy after a stent and have risk factors like older age, low weight, or history of ulcers, this study may help protect your stomach.
Seoul, Eunpyeong-guAges 20 years+ - NCT06985277Enrolling by invitation
Urgent endoscopy for maroon or bloody stools
This trial tests if a quick endoscopic exam of the upper digestive tract helps people who come to the hospital with maroon-colored or bloody stools. It may find the source of bleeding and guide treatment.
Bangkok, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT02863250Recruiting
Blood transfusion registry for people needing frequent transfusions
This registry collects information from adults who receive frequent red blood cell transfusions. It may help clinicians understand transfusion needs and improve future care.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06543316Recruiting
Treating gastric bypass ulcers with low-thermal argon plasma
This study tests a new way to treat painful sores (marginal ulcers) that can happen after gastric bypass surgery. Doctors use a special tool (argon plasma) during an endoscopy to help the sores heal faster, and you will get standard ulcer medicine too.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07089277Recruiting
Validating a bleeding risk score for stomach bleeding
This study checks how well a risk score predicts the need for treatment in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding (bleeding in the stomach or esophagus). It may help doctors decide if you need urgent care.
