Not a traditional drug phase: Endovascular Intervention for Portal Hypertension-Related Gastrointestinal Bleeding for Cirrhosis
Portal hypertension-related gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB), especially gastric variceal bleeding, is a critical complication of liver cirrhosis that is associated with high rebleeding and mortality rates. While endovascular interventions such as transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) and retrograde/antegrade transvenous obliteration (RTO/ATO) represent major advances, real-world clinical data and localized prognostic models for patients undergoing these treatments are extremely sparse in Vietnam.
This is an observational study. You are not assigned a new experimental drug. Researchers measure what already happens in your care or in daily life.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
This listing is observational (StudyType). The registry does not assign a new experimental drug as the study intervention.
They plan to enroll about 167 people at Ho Chi Minh City. Taking part typically means a procedure as part of the study plus check-ins.
Official title (unrewritten)
Treatment Outcomes and Predictors After Endovascular Intervention for Portal Hypertension-Related Gastrointestinal Bleeding in Patients With Cirrhosis at University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City
Interventions: Endovascular Intervention for Portal Hypertension-Related Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Primary outcome (registry wording): Number of Participants With a Composite Adverse Clinical Outcome After Endovascular Intervention
Who it is for (from inclusion criteria)
Ages 18 Years to any
Patient is aged 18 years or older on the day of admission
Confirmed diagnosis of liver cirrhosis by attending clinicians based on clinical findings, laboratory tests, imaging studies (ultrasound, CT, MRI, elastography), or liver histology if available
Diagnosis of acute portal hypertension-related gastrointestinal bleeding requiring treatment with at least one endovascular intervention technique (TIPS, PARTO, CARTO, ATO, or combined techniques)
Who the registry excludes
Pregnant or lactating women
Non-cirrhotic portal hypertension, or liver cirrhosis that is unconfirmed or questionable
Gastrointestinal bleeding due to etiologies completely unrelated to portal hypertension (e.g., peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer, Mallory-Weiss tears, vascular ectasias), or bleeding of completely unknown origin
Missing critical medical records or core pre-procedural/outcome data that would prevent the primary outcome assessment
This study is not a treatment protocol and no experimental treatments are involved. Study participants may be seen as needed for clinical, translational and basic research studies, or as medically indicated.
Background: \- High blood pressure in the lungs, known as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), is a rare disorder. Some people have disease-associated PAH and some have PAH from an unknown cause.
Background: \- Noncirrhotic Portal Hypertension (NCPH) is caused by liver diseases that increase pressure in the blood vessels of the liver. It seems to start slowly and not have many warning signs.
