Could a shorter hospital stay stop bleeding just as well?
NCT ID NCT03624517
Summary
This study aimed to see if a 24-hour drug infusion works as well as the standard 72-hour infusion to prevent re-bleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis. It involved adults who had a procedure to stop bleeding from swollen veins in their esophagus. The goal was to determine if the shorter treatment is safe and effective, potentially reducing hospital time and costs.
