Diagnostics of Helicobacter pylori Infection in Patients with Peptic Ulcer Bleeding

Abstract: In peptic ulcer bleeding, RUT combined with histology is an adequate diagnostic approach. However, false negative results have to be considered following even short-term HpSuT or hospitalization. Non-invasive diagnosis based on serology alone is inaccurate and should be complemented by the urea breath test prior to starting HpSuT.

“…There are conflicting results in the literature regarding its association. While some studies show a high prevalence of H. pylori infection in PPU patients, and its eradication preventing the relapse of ulcer, others show a low or complete lack of association, suggesting different pathogenesis for PPU [1,[6][7]. Because of these conflicting results and paucity of data, this study was undertaken to assess the role of H. pylori in patients with PPU.…”

“…The incidence of perforated peptic ulcer (PPU) has only declined minimally despite the widespread use of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradicative agents. About 95% of the patients suffering from duodenal ulcers and 70-80% of the gastric ulcer patients are found to be H. pylori-positive [1]. Although the role of H. pylori is well known in peptic ulcer disease (PUD) etiology, its role in PPU is not well established [2][3][4][5].…”
