[Prevention of stress-induced hemorrhage of the upper gastrointestinal tract in neurosurgical intensive care patients. A controlled, randomized double-blind study with ranitidine alone and in combination with pirenzepine]. 1989

B Krakamp, and T Rommel, and M Edelmann, and P Leidig

During a controlled, randomized, double blind study, 30 patients of a neurosurgical intensive care unit were treated with ranitidin and placebo (group 1) or ranitidin and pirenzepin (group 2). No significant difference in the effectivity of both methods was established, presumably due to the small number of cases. The pH values of group 2 lay in the median above 3.5, whereby the difference only became statistically significant after a seven-day period of therapy. In how far the increase of the pH value represents the only factor of a stress ulcer prophylaxis requires further investigation, particularly in connection with pulmonary risks caused by this.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010438 Peptic Ulcer Hemorrhage Bleeding from a PEPTIC ULCER that can be located in any segment of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. Hemorrhage, Peptic Ulcer,Peptic Ulcer Hemorrhages,Ulcer Hemorrhage, Peptic
D010890 Pirenzepine An antimuscarinic agent that inhibits gastric secretion at lower doses than are required to affect gastrointestinal motility, salivary, central nervous system, cardiovascular, ocular, and urinary function. It promotes the healing of duodenal ulcers and due to its cytoprotective action is beneficial in the prevention of duodenal ulcer recurrence. It also potentiates the effect of other antiulcer agents such as CIMETIDINE and RANITIDINE. It is generally well tolerated by patients.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.
