Abstract :

Our aim was to identify H.pylori infection in patients presenting with peptic ulcer like symptoms by endoscopy and to eradicate Helicobacter pylori infection with anti Helicobacter pylori treatment in chronic dyspepsia patients and to see whether resolution of symptoms occur or not. Fifty cases presenting with complaints of dyspepsia between March 2012 to March 2013 were selected. A thorough history, examination of the patient, basic necessary blood investigations, USG abdomen, to rule out other causes of dyspepsia and Endoscopy was done on patients. Biopsy material taken and sent for urease test to diagnose H. pylori infection in these patients. Anti H. pylori treatment given for all dyspepsia patients, follow up was done whether improvement or relief of symptoms occurred. The study consists of 50 patients i.e., 35 males and 15 females. More than 70% of the chronic dyspepsia patients have associated with H.pylori infection and out of them more than 75% was relieved of symptoms with treatment.
