Core Tip |
Diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection can be rapidly achieved within the framework of gastroscopy by rapid urease test (RUT) or by gastric juice analysis with Endofaster. In this prospective observational study, we compared the accuracy of these two methods. Gastric juice analysis with Endofaster could reliably detect H. pylori with high accuracy, showing a diagnostic performance comparable to that of RUT and a major advantage of an immediate result. Intraprocedural H. pylori detection (or exclusion) is crucial to optimize the diagnostic approach and improve the management of infection. The diagnosis of Endofaster may guide additional sampling for antibiotic susceptibility testing in positive patients or avoid unnecessary biopsies in negative patients. |
