Abstract

The Proton Pump Inhibitors versus Histamine-2 Receptor Blockers for Ulcer Prophylaxis Therapy in the Intensive Care Unit (PEPTIC) study1 has now been published.2 With 26 828 participants, the PEPTIC trial is the largest clinical trial ever conducted in intensive care medicine and provides very precise estimates of the likely range of possible treatment effects associated with proton pump inhibitors versus histamine-2 receptor blockers.
