First of all, the course of treatment of Helicobacter pylori is usually 2 weeks, but in some cases, after the eradication of Helicobacter pylori, it is necessary to continue the acid treatment for 4-8 weeks according to the physical condition. In any case, if you want to confirm whether the eradication of Helicobacter pylori is successful, you need to check Helicobacter pylori one month after stopping the drug completely to confirm the effect of eradication treatment.
How to check Helicobacter pylori? Let's talk about several common methods for detecting Helicobacter pylori-
1. Gastroscopy is an invasive method for detecting Helicobacter pylori, which can be used for the diagnosis of gastric diseases and the detection of Helicobacter pylori in tissues. As for whether to do gastroscopy for Helicobacter pylori after eradication treatment, it mainly depends on whether to check and diagnose other diseases in the stomach. If we only check for Helicobacter pylori, we have a better non-invasive method.
2.C 14 or C 13 breath test is also the gold standard for detecting whether there is Helicobacter pylori infection. Using isotope labeling method, after taking a certain drug reagent, after a certain process, exhale to check whether there is Helicobacter pylori in the stomach. The specific steps of C 13 and C 14 are different, so how to follow the doctor's advice is enough. Through this breath test, it is more suitable to be used alone to confirm whether Helicobacter pylori has been successfully eradicated.
3. Detection of fecal antigen. For people infected with Helicobacter pylori, feces usually contain the antigen of Helicobacter pylori. Therefore, the accuracy of fecal antigen detection can reach more than 95%, and it is also one of the methods that can be used to check whether Helicobacter pylori is cured successfully.
4. Blood test for Helicobacter pylori antibody, this method can not be used to test whether the eradication of Helicobacter pylori is successful. Blood test of Helicobacter pylori antibody can only prove whether Helicobacter pylori is infected, but not whether Helicobacter pylori has been eradicated.
Therefore, it is suggested that after stopping using all related drugs for more than one month, the success of eradication of Helicobacter pylori should be confirmed by isotope-labeled breath test or fecal antigen test.
For the eradication treatment of Helicobacter pylori, if it is confirmed that the eradication treatment is successful, it cannot be taken lightly. If you don't pay more attention in your daily life, the probability of repeated infection of Helicobacter pylori is also great. Therefore, if you have successfully cured your friends, you must pay attention to the cleanliness of your diet and maintain good personal hygiene habits in your life. When he has Helicobacter pylori, it is a good idea to try a separate meal system, even if it is not a complete separate meal system. In addition, he should pay attention to washing his hands before and after meals and avoid touching unclean water and food, which are effective ways to reduce repeated infection of Helicobacter pylori. In addition to preventing infection, it is also very important to pay attention to nourishing and protecting the stomach, regulating the spleen and stomach, enhancing the body's immunity and enhancing the resistance to invading bacteria.
How to prove that Helicobacter pylori has been eradicated?
Helicobacter pylori breeds in the stomach, which is the culprit that aggravates the disease and causes cancer; According to the data, more than half of the people in China suffer from Helicobacter pylori, and sharing tableware and spitting will spread Helicobacter pylori.
People with stomach diseases, gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers all carry Helicobacter pylori;
The symptoms of Helicobacter pylori are: gastrointestinal discomfort; Abdominal fullness after meals; After midnight, the upper abdomen is full; Dry smell; The stool is thin and shapeless, etc.
Helicobacter pylori is the chief culprit that leads to the aggravation of gastric diseases to canceration;
At present, the most commonly used method is C 14 breath method to detect the density of Helicobacter pylori, combined with gastroscopy to diagnose the degree of gastric disease;
Helicobacter pylori is easily killed;
At present, the common methods are triple therapy and quadruple therapy to kill Helicobacter pylori. The effect of quadruple therapy is obvious (that is, disinfection with three or four drugs together);
Whether to use triple therapy or quadruple therapy for sterilization depends on the doctor's arrangement for sterilization treatment; A course of treatment is 14 days; Spend a few hundred dollars;
Can it be sterilized and eradicated? Have you seen any cases introducing eradication at present? However, it can be sterilized to normal density or below, and there is no big problem;
After a course of quadruple therapy sterilization, the density of Helicobacter pylori decreased from "42" to "0.5";
Can sterilization be done once and for all?
Anyone with stomach trouble should not be careless, and should be examined and treated regularly;
For example, for general gastritis, you can do a C 14 breath test once a year and a gastroscope every two years;
Patients with gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer should have 1-2 C 14 breath test and 1 gastroscopy every year.
Atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia or atypical hyperplasia, C 14 breath test twice a year, gastroscopy once a year:
In severe cases, C 14 breath test is done once every three months, and gastroscopy is done twice a year. Or do regular inspection according to the doctor's advice;
According to the above gas examination and microscopic examination, the base can control and avoid the malignant transformation of stomach diseases;
How to do with helicobacter pylori and no stomach trouble? The answer is normal, no obstacles, no need to take it to heart, no need for treatment;
For people with all kinds of stomach diseases, it is necessary to carry out C 14 breath test to detect Helicobacter pylori, disinfect it and combine with gastroscopy. Doctors can make a correct assessment of the disease and make a correct treatment plan.
We know that Helicobacter pylori is an important inducing factor of chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer and even gastric cancer, so we now advocate the detection of Helicobacter pylori in patients with symptomatic gastric diseases. If infected with Helicobacter pylori, it should be eradicated. Generally, quadruple therapy is adopted, and whether there is Helicobacter pylori is detected one month after continuous use for two weeks.
So how to detect whether it is infected with Helicobacter pylori in clinic?
The simplest method is C 13 or C 14 breath test. C 13 and C 14 are both radioactive elements, and one of them can be used. Labeling urea and taking it, Helicobacter pylori can decompose urea into CO2 and other substances, and CO2 will be exhaled with breathing, so we can monitor whether there is CO2 gas labeled C 13 or C 14 in vitro. If radioactive elements are detected, there is Helicobacter pylori in the body. If no radioactive elements are detected, there is no Helicobacter pylori in the body.
Here, some patients are worried when they hear radioactive C 13 or C 14. In fact, there is no need to be afraid. Although C 13 and C 14 are radioactive elements, their penetrating power is weak and they will not cause damage to human cells and tissues, so they are safe.
In addition to this method, there are other detection methods, but they are all invasive, such as gastroscopy for gastric mucosa biopsy. Although the accuracy is higher than that of breath test, it is not easy to operate and causes pain to patients. Generally, this method is not used unless the patient is required to have a gastroscopy of the stomach.
It is difficult to completely eradicate HP, just reduce the concentration inhibition to the normal range. C 14 can be determined by breathing or gastroscopy.
Do carbon 13 or 14 breath test.
I couldn't help cleaning it once, then sharing meals and eating more homemade yogurt. Going to the hospital with an upset stomach will definitely let you check. If it is found out, it will be four times. I'll let you keep it if I don't find out. Check whether you have taken stomach medicine within one month, and if you have, you are not allowed.
The best feeling is to ingest other probiotics, because any living thing has its own living environment, that is, your current stomach environment is suitable for Helicobacter pylori, and ingesting other probiotics will slowly destroy this environment and regain balance, that is, for a long time.
Helicobacter pylori is difficult to eradicate this disease. After taking the triple drug for one month, you can go to the hospital for C 14 breath test.
