Efficacy of Vonoprazan Versus Intravenous Proton Pump Inhibitors for Prevention of Rebleeding in High Risk Peptic Ulcers Bleeding After Successful Endoscopic Hemostasis

Summary

Upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage (UGIH) is common urgency condition.The estimate mortality rate about 7 percent from peptic ulcers disease(PUD). A proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) intravenous infusion are standard treatment for high risk ulcer bleeding. Vonoprazan,subclass of potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs), have beneficial effects including rapid, long-lasting and strong acid suppression.The investigators design a randomized-controlled trial comparison between 72 hours of intravenous PPIs infusion and oral vonoprazan in high risk ulcer UGIH after achieve endoscopic hemostasis. Outcome measurement are re-bleeding rate in 30 days as primary and re-bleeding rate in 3 days, 30 days mortality, rate of angioembolisation, unit of blood transfusion, hospital cost and length of stay as secondary outcome.
