Test Details:

The Helicobacter pylori IgG test is a blood test used to detect the presence of antibodies against the Helicobacter pylori bacteria in the body. Helicobacter pylori is a type of bacteria that can infect the stomach and cause various gastrointestinal conditions, including peptic ulcers and gastritis. The test works by measuring the levels of IgG antibodies specific to Helicobacter pylori in the blood. IgG antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to an infection.

If the test detects high levels of these antibodies, it indicates that the person has been exposed to Helicobacter pylori at some point in their life. The Helicobacter pylori IgG test is commonly used to diagnose an active or past Helicobacter pylori infection. It is also used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for the infection. However, it is important to note that a positive test result does not necessarily mean that the person currently has an active infection, as the antibodies can remain in the body for a long time after the infection has been treated.

The test is usually performed in a laboratory using a blood sample taken from a vein in the arm. It is a simple and relatively quick test, with results typically available within a few days. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to interpret the results of the Helicobacter pylori IgG test and determine the appropriate course of action.
