NCT05746377

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test if metoclopramide can improve effectiveness of endoscopic intervention in upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeds. The main questions the investigators hope to answer is Does metoclopramide lessen the need for repeat endoscopy, interventional radiology intervention or surgery in cases of upper GI bleed? Does metoclopramide improve visibility of the GI walls in cases of upper GI bleed?
