Helicobacter Pylori Antigen Detection
This test detects the presence of Helicobacter pylori antigens in a stool sample. It is used to diagnose infection by this bacterium, which is associated with gastritis, peptic ulcers, and an increased risk of stomach cancer.
An H. Pylori test diagnoses Pylori infection. It is caused by bacteria of the same name; this bacterium targets your stomach to cause stomach ulcers or peptic ulcer disease. The test works by detecting antibodies against the bacteria. The presence of antibodies confirms a past or present infection. The test is usually prescribed if you are experiencing symptoms such as a burning pain in your middle or upper abdomen between meals or at night, a fluctuating abdominal pain that peaks and gets better throughout the day, bloating, nausea and vomiting. It is a simple blood test that doesn’t require you to move out of the comfort of your home. Simply schedule the test on your desired date and time and a trained phlebotomist will reach your doorstep to collect the sample. Book an H. Pylori test now.
