Contribution of genetic amplification by PCR for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients receiving proton pump inhibitors

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori detection by standard methods may be altered by proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use. However, some patients cannot or should not interrupt PPI use before undergoing testing for H. pylori. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) could allow more reliable H. pylori detection even i...
