Laboratory diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori

By now, it has been established that bacteria of the species Helicobacter pylori cause the majority of gastritis, up to 80% of cases of gastric ulcer and up to 90% of duodenal ulcer. It is believed that all over the world more than half of the population is infected, and in Kazakhstan it is believed more than 80% of them.

            One of the most promising non-invasive methods for confirming Helicobacter pylori infection (which is also a risk factor for various cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, etc.) is the determination of pathogen antigens in feces. The use of such tests is especially convenient in pediatrics.

Rapid detection of Helicobacter pylori antigens in feces using immunochromatography at the clinic Keruen-Medicus allows you to detect the infection with an accuracy of 95%. The simplicity, convenience and low cost of the analysis makes it possible to expand the range of persons examined, which allows timely identification of the risk group for the occurrence of dangerous complications, reasonable prescription of therapy and control of its effectiveness.
