[Endoscopic arrest and prevention of recurrences in acute gastroduodenal hemorrhages]

A single use of endoscopic arrest of gastroduodenal hemorrhages slightly improves therapeutic results for this group of patients but does not prevent hemorrhagic recurrence deteriorating sharply prognosis in patients with acute gastroduodenal hemorrhages. Daily endoscopic control with adhesive applications for 5-10 days will make it possible to reduce the number of repeated hemorrhages and to improve the results of therapy of patients with gastroduodenal hemorrhages. However, daily endoscopic inspections are not always possible and economically appropriate. Therefore, the author proposes a search for new methods of endoscopic arrest and prevention of recurrences of acute gastroduodenal hemorrhages.
