Non-variceal Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Keywords
CYP2C19, Helicobacter pylori, non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding, intragastric pH, proton pump inhibitor
Brief summary
The aim of the study is to identify the best method of omeprazole (OME) application with respect to intragastric pH, cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) genotype and phenotype.
Detailed description
The patients with non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) are prospectively enrolled. After the achievement of endoscopic hemostasis, the patients are randomized to 40-mg intravenous (i.v.) OME bolus injection every 12 h or 8-mg/h continuous i.v. infusion for 72 h after an 80-mg i.v. OME bolus administration. The intragastric pH is recorded for 72 h. The CYP2C19 variant alleles (\*2, \*3, \*17) are analyzed and the serum concentrations of OME and 5-hydroxyomeprazole (5-OH OME) are determined. The diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection was based on the results of the rapid urease test performed on stomach mucosa biopsies (antrum and angle) and on the results of the stool antigen test.
