| Core Tip |
This multicenter European study found that 14% of patients in whom Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication treatment failed did not receive retreatment, often due to patient-driven decisions and medical considerations such as advanced age, previous noncompliance, and treatment intolerance. Identifying these barriers emphasizes the need for shared decision-making and enhanced patient education to improve management outcomes. These findings provide crucial insights into real-world challenges in H. pylori infection management and offer guidance for optimizing treatment strategies in line with the recommendations of Maastricht VI/Florence. |
