Bleeding from medications in the upper stomach
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial is looking at adults who have bleeding in the upper part of the stomach or gut that was caused by a medication. The goal is to learn more about how this type of bleeding happens and how to treat it.

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.
This trial uses an endoscopy camera to look at the inside of your upper digestive tract to find the cause of bleeding. It may help doctors understand what is happening and decide on the best treatment.
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.
This trial tests a new breath test to quickly detect upper gastrointestinal bleeding. It may provide a noninvasive and faster way to diagnose bleeding compared to traditional methods.
This trial tests a wireless optical sensor capsule that you swallow to find the source of bleeding in your upper stomach or food pipe. It may help doctors diagnose upper gastrointestinal bleeding without a standard endoscopy tube.
This trial compares an IV “acid-suppressing” medicine (PPI infusion) with acid pills (oral PPIs) after doctors treat a bleeding peptic ulcer endoscopically. It may help prevent re-bleeding by keeping stomach acid low while the ulcer heals.
