Patients with high Rockall scores have increased risk of rebleeding and mortality within 30 days after peptic ulcer bleeding, but long-term outcomes deserve follow-up after cessation of proton pump inhibitors. The paper aimed to validate whether patients with high Rockall scores have more recurrent ulcer bleeding in a 3.5-year longitudinal cohort.
Between August 2011 and July 2014, 368 patients with peptic ulcer bleeding were prospectively enrolled after endoscopic hemostasis to receive proton pump inhibitors for at least 8 to 16 weeks. These subjects were categorized into either a Rockall scores ≥6 group (n = 257) or a Rockall scores <6 group (n = 111) and followed up until July of 2015 to assess recurrent ulcer bleeding.
The proportion of patients with rebleeding during the 3.5-year follow-up was higher in patients with Rockall scores ≥6 than in those with scores <6 (10.51 vs. 3.63 per 100 person-year, P = 0.004, log-rank test). Among patients with Rockall scores ≥6, activated partial thromboplastin time prolonged ≥1.5-fold (P = 0.045), American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status class ≥III (P = 0.02), and gastric ulcer (P = 0.04) were three additional independent factors found to increase rebleeding risk. The cumulative rebleeding rate was higher in patients with Rockall scores ≥6 with more than or equal to any two additional factors than in those with fewer than two additional factors (15.69 vs. 7.63 per 100 person-year, P = 0.012, log-rank test).
Patients with Rockall scores ≥6 are at risk of long-term recurrent peptic ulcer bleeding. The risk can be independently increased by the presence of activated partial thromboplastin time prolonged ≥1.5-fold, American Society of Anesthesiologists class ≥III, and gastric ulcer in patients with Rockall scores ≥6.
对于消化性溃疡出血患者,Rockall 评分较高者在出血后 30 天内再出血和死亡的风险增加,但质子泵抑制剂停药后需要对长期结局进行随访。本研究旨在验证在一个 3.5 年的纵向队列中,Rockall 评分较高的患者是否有更多的复发性溃疡出血。
2011 年 8 月至 2014 年 7 月,368 例接受内镜止血后接受质子泵抑制剂治疗至少 8 至 16 周的消化性溃疡出血患者前瞻性入组。将这些患者分为 Rockall 评分≥6 组(n=257)或 Rockall 评分<6 组(n=111),并随访至 2015 年 7 月,以评估复发性溃疡出血。
在 3.5 年的随访期间,Rockall 评分≥6 组患者的再出血率高于 Rockall 评分<6 组(每 100 人年 10.51% vs. 3.63%,P=0.004,log-rank 检验)。在 Rockall 评分≥6 的患者中,活化部分凝血活酶时间延长≥1.5 倍(P=0.045)、美国麻醉医师协会身体状况分级≥III 级(P=0.02)和胃溃疡(P=0.04)是另外三个独立的增加再出血风险的因素。Rockall 评分≥6 且存在≥2 个附加因素的患者的累积再出血率高于存在<2 个附加因素的患者(每 100 人年 15.69% vs. 7.63%,P=0.012,log-rank 检验)。
Rockall 评分≥6 的患者有发生长期复发性消化性溃疡出血的风险。在 Rockall 评分≥6 的患者中,活化部分凝血活酶时间延长≥1.5 倍、美国麻醉医师协会身体状况分级≥III 级和胃溃疡可独立增加出血风险。
