Prima Home Test Helicobacter pylori Antigen Test
Self-test for the detection of the Helicobacter pylori antigen in the feces
HELICOBACTER PYLORI:
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.
WHO IS THIS TEST FOR?
HELICOBACTER PYLORI ANTIGEN TEST is intended for anyone who wants to identify the presence of the bacterium in the body.
This bacterium chronically affects about half of the world’s population and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric cancer, and mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma.

F.A.Q.:
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 colored line will appear at the control region (C) on the test device, showing that the test performed correctly. The absence of the colored 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 color and intensity of the lines do not affect the interpretation of the result. The test has to be considered positive regardless of the color intensity of the test line (T).
