Study Summary

The objectives of this study are to test whether there are statistically significant differences between the standard of care workup workup of non-hematemesis gastrointestinal bleeding by endoscopy \[upper, lower and other tests\], compared with deployment of a video capsule as the first test followed by the most appropriate endoscopic procedure based on video capsule findings, if needed. The investigators propose to examine differences in time to diagnosis, reduction in numbers of procedures, and length of stay between a standard of care workup protocol and our proposed protocol of early capsule endoscopy deployment.

Primary Outcome

Time to localization of bleeding refers to the time after a patient is admitted to the emergency room and a bleeding source is localized. We defined localization of bleeding as endoscopic visualization of stigmata of recent hemorrhage.
