In the present retrospective study the hospital records of all patients admitted to the University Hospital of Tromsø with their first ulcer bleeding during 1973-1985 were reviewed. The patients were grouped as dyspeptics and non-dyspeptics. The case history gave adequate information in 298
To clarify the clinical significance of dyspepsia in patients with bleeding duodenal ulcer, we studied 298 patients prospectively. Ages of patients ranged from 16 to 81 yr (mean 45.9). There were 244 (82%) dyspeptic and 54 (18%) nondyspeptic patients. In the dyspeptic group, significantly more
BACKGROUND
A 1-year prospective study of 545 patients with dyspepsia examined the natural history of dyspepsia in a primary care population. Predictors of gastrointestinal bleeding and other related utilization-of-service indicators were identified.
METHODS
Subjects were adult primary care patients
The most relevant clinical presentations of duodenal ulcer disease are pain and acute bleeding. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relevance of dyspepsia in patients with bleeding duodenal ulcer, and to compare the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of bleeding patients with
OBJECTIVE
The eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in patients with bleeding peptic ulcer disease (PUD) decreases the rate of ulcer rebleeding. Although all methods for H. pylori diagnosis have been extensively evaluated in uncomplicated PUD the efficacy of the commonly used rapid urease
A series of 394 patients with duodenal ulcer was examined to determine the relationship of the blood groups with the age of onset of ulcer symptoms, with the family history of ulcer dyspepsia, and with ulcer complications. It was found that among patients whose symptoms began in the first four
Crean et al1 defined dyspepsia as 'any form of episodic or persistent discomfort or other symptom referrable to the upper alimentary tract, excluding jaundice or bleeding', and listed irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and formal psychiatric illnesses with gastrointestinal manifestations among the
A consecutive series of 2,277 patients presenting for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was analysed. The following groups of patients were studied with reference to sex, race and dialect groups: those presenting with dyspepsia but no haemorrhage, those presenting with upper gastrointestinal
Endoscopic electrocoagulation with a liquid monopolar probe was exclusively attempted in 77 patients with major bleeding from peptic ulcer assessed as requiring emergency surgery. Endoscopy failed to control bleeding in 14 patients (18%), who proceeded directly to surgery. Initial endoscopic
BACKGROUND
The late outcome of patients who present with major peptic ulcer haemorrhage is unclear. An examination was made of the hypothesis that prognosis may be poor because many such patients have severe co-morbid diseases.
METHODS
Some 121 patients treated endoscopically for severe peptic ulcer
In order to better define management policies we attempted to construct risk models for rebleeding on initial conservative management and mortality after emergency surgery for failure of medical therapy in 387 patients with bleeding gastric ulcer. Several different models were constructed using
The interrelationship of gastrointestinal bleeding, acute perforation, and pyloroduodenal stenosis was examined in a hospital series of 1,457 patients with duodenal ulcers. The proportion of each complication among the total number of ulcer patients after various periods of ulcer symptoms was
Urgent fibre-optic panendoscopy was performed in 400 patients within 24 hours of their admission to hospital for upper gastro-intestinal haemorrhage. The cause of bleeding was established by endoscopy in 87%. No cause was found in 10% and endoscopy failed in 3%. Twenty-five per cent of the patients
One-hundred and one patients admitted to hospital with acute upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage whose initial barium-meal X-ray examination revealed no abnormality have been followed up 5 to 14 years later. Forty-five were symptom-free, and 8 had dyspepsia, but the barium-meal X-ray findings were
