P. Bontems: Heliobacter pylori infection

Dr. Alex Knisely is talking to Dr. Patrick Bontems of Hôpital Universitaire des Enfants Reine Fabiiola in Brussels / Brüssel / Bruxelles, Belgium, about Helicobacter pylori infection — how does one recognise it, diagnose it, treat it, and demonstrate success in treating it? What does one do with asymptomatic close family or social contacts? What about screening the asymptomatic in high-incidence populations? So much work on H. pylori has been published, and that work is so fragmentary, that most of us feel well over our heads in attempts to make sense of it, to distil it, to use it: But Dr Bontems explains it all in a preview of what may, MAY, become next year’s updated ESPGHAN
