Determination of Helicobacter pylori Antigen in Stool Samples and Comparison with Rapid Urease Test in Patients Suspected of Helicobacter Infection
Background and Aims: Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) is the microorganism that infects nearly half of word's population. There are several invasive and non-invasive methods for diagnosis of infection. The main objective of this study was to evaluate antigen of H. Pylori in feces with H. pylori stool antigen (HpSA) test and comparison with rapid urease test (RUT) in the patients suspected to be ...
متن کاملHelicobacter Pylori Diagnosis by Stool Antigen ELISA and Rapid Test
An evaluation of a rapid test for the presence of Helicobacter pylori from stool specimens looking for antigen proceeded for a period of 8 months from March to November 2011. A total of 212 stool samples were collected from 2 different hospitals in Holy Makkah City. Twenty six patients were positive for H. pylori by the ELISA test which was used as the gold standard. The rapid test when compare...
متن کاملAccuracy of a monoclonal antibody-based stool antigen test in the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection.
BACKGROUND Recent availability of tests for Helicobacter pylori antigens in stool samples has provided potentially useful tools for epidemiological studies and clinical settings. The aim of this study was to evaluate a monoclonal antibody-based H. pylori antigen stool test in the primary diagnosis of H. pylori infection, and to study the test performance after patients were treated with lanzopr...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Atlas Helicobacter pylori stool antigen test for diagnosis of infection in adult patients.
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the most important causes of dyspepsia and gastric cancer and diagnosis can be made by invasive or non-invasive methods. The Atlas Helicobacter pylori antigen test is a new rapid non-invasive method which is simple to conduct. The aim of this study was to determine its sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predic...
