title: Therapeutic intervention for nonvariceal gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
abstract: The choice of therapeutic endoscopic technique depends on the training and equipment available to the endoscopist. If the technique is properly performed, the results are similar using injection, thermal coagulation, or laser therapy. We recommended that pediatric endoscopists concentrate on one thermal and one injection technique, since individual bleeding lesions may be more amenable to one method than another based on their anatomic location or briskness of bleeding.
