DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUE FOR DEGREE OF ACTIVITY OF ANTRAL HELICOBACTER-ASSOCIATED GASTRITIS IN PATIENTS WITH BRONCHIAL ASTHMA Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A61B10/00 G01N33/53 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, particularly gastroenterology, specifically to diagnostic techniques for the degree of activity of antral helicobacter-associated gastritis in the patients with bronchial asthma. Blood serum of the patients with bronchial asthma is analysed for the concentration of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) antibodies class IgG by solid-phase immunoassay. The found concentration of Hp antibodies is analysed depending on the degree of inflammation of mucous coat of stomach. And if the concentration of Hp antibodies is less than 77 EIU, zero activity of antral helicobacter-associated gastritis is diagnosed; the concentration of Hp antibodies being 78-184 EIU show the first degree, while the values equal to 185-500 EIU ensure to diagnose the second degree, and if the concentration of Hp antibodies exceeds 500 EIU, the third degree of activity of antral helicobacter-associated gastritis is diagnosed.

EFFECT: method provides higher accuracy and information value of the method with reduced traumatism.
