Preventing bleeding after polyp removal with clips
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether placing small clips at the site of polyp removal in the colon can reduce bleeding in patients who take blood thinners afterwards.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a colonoscopy where a polyp was removed from your colon or rectum.
- You took a blood thinner for at least one dose after the polyp removal.
- You did not have the removal site closed with a special sewing or stapling device.

This trial is testing a standard way to remove large polyps from the colon and checking if it helps prevent them from coming back. It's for people who have a large non-cancerous polyp that needs to be taken out during a colonoscopy.
This study compares closing the wound after removing a large colon polyp to leaving it open. The goal is to see if closing the area reduces bleeding or other problems.
This trial tests whether spraying a medicine called sucralfate on the area where a large polyp was removed can lower the risk of delayed bleeding. It is for people who take blood thinners and are having large polyps removed during a colonoscopy.
This trial looks at how often bleeding happens after an upper scope (EGD) or colonoscopy in people who keep taking blood-thinning medicines during the procedure. The results may help doctors choose safer prep plans to lower bleeding risk.
This study compares two ways to stop bleeding during minimally invasive colon cancer surgery: using a special ultrasound device or standard surgical clips. It aims to see which method works better and is safer for patients like you.
This trial compares two common techniques for removing small polyps (less than 10 millimeters) during a colonoscopy: a cold snare (a wire loop) and cold forceps (a grasping tool). The goal is to find out which method is safer and more effective at completely removing these small growths to help prevent colon cancer.
