Self-test for the detection of anti Helicobacter pylori antibodies in whole blood samples.

Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium, whose ideal habitat is the human gastric mucosa, causing an often asymptomatic infection of the gastrointestinal tract.

Sometimes the presence of this bacterium can cause gastritis and ulcers in the stomach or duodenum. The most common symptoms of these conditions are: burning or pain in the upper abdomen, especially between meals when the stomach is empty, nausea and a sense of fullness, reflux, loss of appetite and weight loss. On the long-term the Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer.

HELICOBACTER PYLORI TEST is useful for a first screening of an ongoing or a past infection of H. Pylori.

Draw a blood sample by using the sterile lancet provided.

Collect the sample indicated with the black line by using the capillary pipette provided.

Deposit the collected specimen into the sample well (S) indicated on the test cassette.

Add 2 drops of the diluent and wait 5 minutes before reading the result.

What happens if the results reading time is not met? The test has been carried out correctly when the instructions for use are followed. It includes the reading time and the interpretation of the results shown at the "RESULTS INTERPRETATION" section of the instructions for use

How to prove that the test worked correctly? A coloured line will appear at the control region (C) on the test device, showing that the test performed correctly. The absence of the coloured line suggests to repeat the test with a new device and a new sample.

How to interpret the test if the control and test lines have different intensities? The colour and intensity of the lines do not affect the interpretation of the result. The test has to be considered positive regardless of the colour intensity of the test line (T).

Although not all H. pylori carriers experience severe symptoms, infection may be accompanied by a variety of signs. If the symptoms persist for a long time, a test is
necessary to diagnose a potential H. pylori infection.
If the presence of H. pylori is detected by the test, certain steps should be followed:
- Consult a specialist who will confirm the infection. Common diagnostic methods include breath tests and stool antigen tests, however, more invasive screening such as gastroscopy are also executed.
- In order to maximize the treatment effects, make sure that you undergo the full treatment procedure (including antibiotics and acid blockers).
- Pay special attention to preventive measures in order to limit the infection spread as well as minimize the chance of its recurrence. Maintain proper hygiene standards and prevent food or water contamination.
H. pylori is a fully treatable condition: a rapid test is an excellent starting point for introducing proper treatment.
