A novel blood-sensing capsule for rapid detection of upper GI bleeding: a prospective clinical trial
Post written by Andrew C. Storm, MD, Chair of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, Rochester, Minnesota, USA. GI bleeding is the most common indication for admission to the hospital in gastroenterology. Determining the source and location of bleeding can be challenging and often requires procedures such as upper endoscopy, colonoscopy, and small-bowel enteroscopy for diagnosis and treatment. Ideally, physicians …
Clinical predictive value of renalase in post-ERCP pancreatitis
Post written by Thiruvengadam Muniraj, MD, from the Department of Medicine, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA. Post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is the most common adverse event after ERCP. Despite adoption of several strategies such as rectal indomethacin, pancreatic duct stent placement, and aggressive fluid administration, incidence of PEP remains substantial. Identifying patients who are likely to develop …

Utility of prophylactic clipping after colorectal cold snare polypectomy in patients on oral antithrombotic agents
Post written by Kenichiro Okimoto, MD, PhD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Graduate School of Medicine, Chiba University, Chiba, Japan. Prophylactic clipping may be unnecessary to prevent delayed bleeding (DB) after colorectal cold snare polypectomy (CSP) in patients on antithrombotic agents. There is no consensus on the effectiveness of prophylactic clipping after colonic CSP. This study …
