What is H. pylori?
-
Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that infects the stomach lining.
- It's a common cause of gastritis, ulcers, and can increase the risk of stomach cancer.
What does the test do?
- The kit detects antibodies (or sometimes antigens) associated with H. pylori infection.
- These antibodies/antigens are present in whole blood, serum, or plasma samples.
- A small blood sample is used, often from a fingerstick or venous draw.
How does it work?
- It is usually a lateral flow immunoassay (similar to a rapid pregnancy test).
- The sample is applied to the test device.
- If H. pylori antibodies (or antigens, depending on kit type) are present, they'll bind to reagents in the test and produce a visible line/mark.
- Results are usually available within 10–20 minutes.
Who uses it?
- Healthcare professionals in clinics, hospitals, laboratories, and sometimes in field settings.
- Used for screening patients who present with symptoms like:
- Recurrent abdominal pain
- Indigestion
- Suspected peptic ulcer disease
Why use it?
-
Quick: Immediate results for timely diagnosis/treatment decisions.
-
Convenient: Can use various blood components (whole blood, serum, plasma).
- Non-invasive compared to endoscopy.
What next after a positive result?
- Positive patients may receive antibiotic therapy to eradicate H. pylori.
- Confirmatory tests (like urea breath test or endoscopy) might be recommended in some cases.
