Yes this is seen with a bit of frequency in the hospital. Usually anticoagulants are stopped for a short time and bleeds in GI tract explored and then clipped. Sometimes people undergo a secondary procedure to stop their need for a blood thinner (like an ablation) or they resume it on a short time after discharge.
