Abstract
Although the initial rate of hemostasis achieved by endoscopic epinephrine injection
for peptic ulcer bleeding is high, bleeding recurs in 14.6% to 35.5% of patients.
The aim of this study was to compare rates of recurrent bleeding after endoscopic
injection of two different volumes of epinephrine in patients with peptic ulcer bleeding.
