Endoscopic Management for Non-variceal Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding: A Network Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials and Cost-Effectiveness Analyses of Two Healthcare Systems
The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different endoscopic interventions for non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Conducted a network meta-analysis comparing OTSC, HP, and ST
Included randomized controlled trials and cost-effectiveness analyses
Assessed efficacy and cost-effectiveness in two healthcare systems
OTSC showed superior efficacy compared to HP and ST
OTSC was more cost-effective than both HP and ST
Recommended as first-line intervention for NVGIB based on findings
Abstract
OTSC was superior to HP and ST in terms of efficacy and cost-effectiveness, favoring its use as a first-line endoscopic hemostasis intervention for NVGIB.
