A considerable number of colonoscopies performed for DPPB may be unnecessary and do not result in hemostatic intervention.Objectives: To develop evidence-based statements to guide clinical decision-making in DPPB.Design: Multidisciplinary Delphi consensus statement.Methods: A panel of 29 experts in gastroenterology, hematology, radiology, and surgery was assembled. Through a systematic review of the literature and a modified Delphi process, consensus statements were developed through iterative rounds of anonymous voting. Statements were revised following anonymous voting and feedback at each round. Those achieving 80% agreement were accepted.Results: The expert panel reached a consensus on 36 statements, covering areas such as antithrombotic management, bowel preparation, colonoscopy indications, and therapeutic hemostatic modalities. Key recommendations include guidance for managing self-limited bleeding and risk stratification to reduce the rate of unnecessary colonoscopies, as well as recommendations for hemodynamically unstable patients who may require primary angioembolization. A practical clinical algorithm is proposed.Conclusion: This document provides a consensus-based framework for managing DPPB. These recommendations aim to improve patient outcomes and optimize healthcare resources while fostering a standardized approach to this common adverse event.25 p.application/pdfengcc by-nc (c) Rodríguez de Santiago, Enrique et al., 2025http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/es/ColonoscòpiaHemorràgiaCirurgia colorectalcolonoscopyhemorrhageColorectal surgeryDelphi consensus statement for the management of delayed post-polypectomy bleedinginfo:eu-repo/semantics/article2025-06-18info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
