Background. Gastroduodenal bleeding (GDB) is a common cause of endoscopic examinations. This study aims to study demographic criteria in patients with ulcerative genesis GDB during primary endoscopic examinations in a single center.
Materials and Methods. The diagnostic esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS) of 231 patients with GDB of ulcerative etiology from January 2020 to December 2021 was analyzed, all patients were with primary EGDS. The study compared the activity of ulcerative bleeding, depending on gender and age groups.
Results. The majority of patients with ulcerative GDCS were women – 57.7%. In both groups, duodenal ulcer was the predominant cause of GDB, 61.5% in women, and 54.2% in men. Active bleeding was observed in 8 (3.4%) patients. Among all women and men, Forrest-II bleeding was detected in 126 (93.4%) and 86 (89.6%) patients, respectively. In women and men, GDB is most common over the age of 50 (83.7% and 59.3%). Significant differences were observed, such as GDB occurs more often in men at the age of 41–50 years, whereas in women it occurs more often at the age of 51–60 years (p < 0.05). Bleeding activity according to Forrest did not depend on gender (p > 0.05).
Conclusion. The risk of bleeding among both women and men is higher over the age of 50. At the same time, the activity of GDK does not depend on the gender and age of the patient.
