Background:
Vonoprazan has been more widely used for artificial ulcers after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer; however, no reports have examined intragastric pH during ESD. The present study aimed to measure gastric pH at the time of ESD and the clinical course afterwards for patients treated with vonoprazan the night before undergoing ESD.
Materials And Methods:
We examined medication status regarding gastric acid secretion and antithrombotic drugs, post-ESD bleeding as a perioperative complication, and the timing of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy after ESD and ulcer healing in 156 patients who underwent gastric ESD at our hospital from January 2014 to December 2019. The gastric pH was measured at the time of ESD after administration of 20 mg vonoprazan on the night before gastric ESD.
Results:
There were 14 cases of post-ESD bleeding in patients treated with proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), including oozing during second-look endoscopy compared to only 1 case of bleeding with vonoprazan administration (p < 0.05). Vonoprazan was also associated with better post-ESD ulcer healing than PPIs. Gastric pH during ESD after vonoprazan administration on the night before gastric ESD was ≥6.96 in all 11 patients.
Conclusion:
Post-ESD bleeding was reduced, and ulcer healing was improved in patients treated with vonoprazan the night before their procedure. Our results suggest high gastric pH during ESD due to vonoprazan administration may be beneficial for hemostasis and ulcer healing following ESD.
