Overview

Endoscopy is helpful in the diagnosis of peptic ulcer disease.Endoscopy with biopsy is recommended to diagnose cancer in patients 55 years or older, or with one or more alarm symptoms such as unexplained weight loss, progressive dysphagia, odynophagia, recurrent vomiting, family history of gastrointestinal cancer, overt gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal mass, iron deficiency anemia.

Peptic ulcer esophagogastroduodenoscopy

According to American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) guidelines 2017 for the treatment of H pylori infection (HPI) include the following recommendations for testing for H pylori:[1]

Pre-endoscopic medical therapy

  • Intravenous infusion of erythromycin 250 mg,30 min before endoscopy improve diagnostic yield and decrease the need for repeat endoscopy
  • Intravenous PPI 80 mg bolus followed by 8 mg/h infusion decreases the number of patients who have higher risk of bleeding at endoscopy[2]

Timing of endoscopy

  • Patients with bleeding ulcer should undergo endoscopy within 24 h of admission, following resuscitative efforts to stabilize hemodynamically
  • Hemodynamically stable patients ,endoscopy should be performed early and discharged on the same day
  • Patients with unstable signs and symptoms e.g tachycardia, hypotension, bloody emesis or nasogastric aspirate in the hospital endoscopy should be done within 12 hours

Different endoscopic test:
