A new method for diagnosing helicobacteriosis in the health resort Isloch - a breath test

All over the world, the urease breath test has been used for the diagnosis of helicobacteriosis for many years. Recently, guests of health resort Isloch have also had the opportunity to take such a test.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori, Helicobacter) is a bacterium whose parasitism can lead to the development of an oncological process. It causes inflammation of the gastric mucosa, the formation of erosions and ulcers. If Helicobacter is detected in the body, then treatment with antibiotics is necessary. However, if Helicobacter is not present, taking antibiotics may disrupt the natural balance of microflora rather than bring benefit. Therefore, for effective treatment it is important to accurately determine the presence or absence of Helicobacter.

Urease breath test is a quick and painless diagnostic method. The principle of the test is very simple and is based on the ability of Helicobacter to secrete the enzyme urease. The patient is given a safe solution of urea to drink. If Helicobacter pylori is present in the stomach, the bacteria will produce urease, which will decompose urea into ammonia and CO2. Thus, through subsequent analysis of exhaled air, the presence of bacteria can be determined.

This test is used for primary diagnosis. It requires minimal patient preparation.
