Comparative Study Clinical Trial Controlled Clinical TrialRecrudescence of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with healed duodenal ulcer after treatment with different regimens.
To determine the 12-month posttherapy recurrence (recrudescence) of Helicobacter pylori in patients with healed duodenal ulcer after apparent eradication of the organism with anti-H. pylori treatment. The influence of original anti-H. pylori treatment regimens on the recrudescence was also evaluated. ⋯ Recrudescence of H. pylori infection after apparent eradication can occur, but it could be that the treatment was only suppressing the organism. The definition of eradication of H. pylori infection may need to be revised, and more sensitive techniques to assess eradication of H. pylori are required.
