EVALUATION OF THE EFFICACY OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI ERADICATION USING HIGH-DOSE AMOXICILLIN AND PPI IN PATIENTS WITH BLEEDING DUODENAL ULCERS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: Evaluation of the efficacy of Helicobacter pylori eradication using high-dose Amoxicillin and PPI in patients with bleeding duodenal ulcers. Subjects and methods: Patients with duodenal ulcer complicated by gastrointestinal bleeding and positive for H. pylori (HP+) who were diagnosed and treated at the Department of Gastroenterology – Bach Mai Hospital. Results: The H. pylori eradication rate of the regimen was 66.7% (per-protocol) and 60.5% (intention-to-treat). These rates did not meet the target for successful H. pylori eradication. There was a significant difference in H. pylori eradication rates based on patients' smoking history (p < 0.05), with non-smokers having higher eradication rates compared to smokers (ITT: 69.7% vs. 30%; PP: 76.7% vs. 33.3%). The ulcer healing rate after H. pylori eradication treatment was 74.4%, while the non-healing rate was 25.6%. Conclusions: A high-dose Amoxicillin and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) regimen is among the effective therapeutic strategies for Helicobacter pylori eradication in patients with bleeding duodenal ulcers.
