Endoscopy results for lower bowel bleeding
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at what doctors find during an endoscopy (camera test) for people who have bright red or dark black blood in their stool. It may help you understand what is causing your bleeding.

Who can take part
- You have had bright red blood or dark, tarry stools.
- You can follow instructions for bowel preparation (cleaning out your colon before the test).
- You are able to cooperate during the procedure.

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.
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 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.
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 bleeding after common endoscopic procedures (like colonoscopy or upper endoscopy) between people who take blood thinners and those who don't. It may help doctors better understand risks for patients on anticoagulants.
This study looks at why people have fresh blood in their stool (hematochezia) and what happens to them. It aims to better understand the causes and outcomes, which could help improve care for future patients.
