The great diversity of regimens and treatment lines and the different efficacy of these, requires a continuous critical analysis of clinical practice, evaluating systematically the efficacy and safety of the different regimens and diagnostic-therapeutic strategies.
The evaluation of real clinical practice using non-interventionist registries will help to improve the design and organization of European Consensus on the management of H. pylori infection, which is the best way to establish healthcare efficiency.

​

Primary aim

To obtain a database registering systematically a large and representative sample of routine clinical practice of European gastroenterologists in order to produce descriptive studies of the management of H. pylori infection.

​

Secondary aims

  • To evaluate H. pylori infection consensus and clinical guidelines implementation in different countries.

  • To perform studies focused on epidemiology, efficacy and safety of the commonly used treatments to eradicate H. pylori.

  • To evaluate accessibility to healthcare technologies and drugs used in the management of H. pylori infection.

  • To allow the development of partial and specific analysis by the participating researchers.
