Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)

The rapid detection test that assists in the diagnosis of stomach ulcers detects the presence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacteria. H. pylori is a spiral-shaped bacterium that lives in the stomach and duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). It is the primary cause of stomach ulcers and is also associated with duodenal ulcers. The rapid detection test is a simple, non-invasive test that can be performed in a doctor's office or clinic. It involves taking a small sample of stool or breath and testing it for the presence of H. pylori bacteria. The test results are usually available within a few minutes.
