About this study

Official title: Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) Gastric Variceal Bleeding Database Repository

The purpose of having a database is to collect data related to endoscopic ultrasound procedures performed by Indiana University EUS physicians; specifically, for the treatment of gastric variceal bleeding This data will be used for research purposes only to determine the clinical impact of endoscopic ultrasound treatment of gastric variceal bleeding. The physicians will also be able to better understand the patient's condition and disease process that may lead to improved standard of care and improved patient management.

Read the detailed description

Clinical outcomes research is one of the strengths of the EUS group. As a group, the physicians need a tracking system for specific treatment modalities, and data to determine the impact of endoscopic ultrasound for patients with gastric variceal bleeding. Gastric variceal bleeding is a severe complication of portal hypertension with significant morbidity and mortality with limited therapeutic options. Currently, there is no database in existence for endoscopic ultrasound clinical research for specific procedures. Also, there is limited data regarding the outcome of endoscopic sclerotherapy with cyanoacrylate in the United States.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine the clinical impact of endoscopic ultrasound treatment of gastric variceal bleeding.

    Patients with gastric variceal bleeding will be treated with DermaBond injection via EUS (endoscopic ultrasound). A follow-up EUS will observe the treated varices and determine if retreatment with DermaBond is necessary, or if observation alone is required.

    Measured: 36 months
