Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Hemospray® intraprocedural bleeding control | From Hemospray® first application up to the end of the endoscopic procedure. This variable should be assessed in day 1. | It refers to the proportion (%) of patients who achieves intraprocedural hemostasis with Hemospray®. Intraprocedural bleeding control is defined as endoscopic observation of bleeding cessation after Hemospray® use. |
| Rebleeding rate | Date of Hemospray® application until rebleeding, assessed up to 48 months | To describe the rebleeding rate (%) after Hemospray®. Rebleeding is defined as a new episode of hematemesis, rectorrhagia or melena; hemoglobin level decrease \>2 g/dL within 48 h of the index endoscopy or direct visualization of active bleeding at the previously treated lesion at repeat endoscopy. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Adverse events potentially related to Hemospray® | From Hemospray application until day +7 | Abdominal distension (Yes/no), Intestinal perforation (Yes/No). Unexpected adverse events will be also recorded and evaluated. |
| Mortality | From Hemospray application until death, assessed up to 48 months or lost follow-up, whichever came first | % of patients who die after Hemospray® application |
