Helicobacter pylori: diagnosis of antibiotic resistance
NewsFor the first time in Russia, specialists of the A.S. Loginov Center for Personalized Medicine MCSC have developed a test system for molecular genetic diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori antibiotic resistance. To date, the molecular genetic method is one of the most accurate methods of laboratory diagnostics.
Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that lives in the mucous membrane of the stomach and duodenum, causing inflammatory processes, as well as diseases such as gastritis, duodenitis, esophagitis, ulcers and even cancer of the stomach and duodenum.
Antibiotics are used in the treatment of helicobacteriosis. However, frequent use of antibiotics leads to an increase in the immunity of Helicobacter pylori to them. Therefore, it is very important to establish the presence of resistance of Helicobacter pylori to antibiotics before starting treatment, which will help the doctor to choose the right treatment regimen in a timely manner.
Timely detection and treatment of helicobacteriosis is the most important way to prevent the above diseases. You can ask all your questions and make an appointment by phone +7 (495) 305-05-50, +7 (905) 525-50-05.
