In recent years, there has been a trend of increasing cases of medical tourism, as the best gastroenterological clinics are located abroad. However, many patients refuse to be diagnosed or treated in them due to difficulties in booking and arranging a trip.
The Bookimed online portal specializes in finding, selecting and booking clinics for diagnosis and treatment, greatly simplifies the process of booking, organizing examinations and therapy abroad. With the help of Bookimed, you can choose a clinic where they successfully carry out an unusual for our countries test for the presence of the bacterium Helicobacter Pylori in a patient.
Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that lives in the stomach and duodenum. Many cases of gastritis, ulcers and even stomach cancer are associated with this microorganism. Oddly enough, the discovery of this bacterium occurred only in the 80s of the 20th century. Previously, assumptions that living organisms could survive in the acidic environment of the stomach could even be ridiculed by the scientific community - it was believed that the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the stomach did not allow the development of any forms of living beings there.
In modern foreign clinics, which bookimed.com offers to book, the diagnosis of Helicobacter Pylori bacteria is quite simple. Thanks to modern equipment, the doctor, in order to make a diagnosis, does not need to do a biopsy of the stomach, but it is enough to prescribe a urease breath test (URT) to a person.
It is enough for the patient to exhale twice into the test tube after a short breath hold:
first time on an empty stomach
the second - after taking a special solution.
Within a short period of time, you can find out the result.
Patients who are infected with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori are usually prescribed a course of treatment - anti-Helicobacter therapy. In other words, a person is undergoing the usual course of treatment with narrow-spectrum antibiotics that are aimed specifically at this infection. After the end of therapy, the patient does not have Helicobacter Pylori. Accordingly, this several times reduces the risk of developing gastritis, ulcers and stomach cancer.
