ESGE — ESGE 2026 peptic ulcer bleeding update
ESGE, 2026
For Forrest IIb adherent clots, conditionally consider removal and treatment when the endoscopist can safely manage bleeding. OTS clips are an alternative for selected high-risk ulcers and recurrent bleeding. Selected very-high-risk patients may be considered for prophylactic embolization. Resume necessary anticoagulation when clinically indicated by thromboembolic risk; durable hemostasis permits oral nutrition within 24 hours. See the linked guideline and correction DOI 10.1055/a-2881-7411 for recommendation-specific certainty.
