In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Selective Variceal Devascularization (EUS-SVD) is effective in preventing the re-bleeding of gastric varices. It will also investigate the safety of EUS-SVD. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does EUS-SVD lead to a greater reduction in the one-year gastric variceal re-bleeding rate among participants compared to conventional Endoscopic Gastric Variceal Obturation (GVO)? What medical problems (adverse events) do participants experience when receiving EUS-SVD treatment? Researchers will compare EUS-SVD with GVO (a currently commonly used first-line treatment method) to see if EUS-SVD can be a superior option for treating gastric varices. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to undergo either the EUS-SVD or the GVO procedure. Receive treatment in the hospital and be hospitalized for obser
