The H. pylori urea breath test is used to detect the presence of Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that is found in the stomach and may contribute to the development of chronic gastritis, ulcers, and in some cases stomach cancer. Breath testing is a non-invasive, pain-free method to test for H. pylori. This test requires people to provide a breath sample before and after drinking a solution that will react to the presence of H. pylori bacteria by releasing carbon dioxide. H. pylori is a bacteria commonly found in the stomach. It weakens the stomach's natural protective lining making it more susceptible to damage from gastric acid. This can lead to the development of ulcers and in time, increase the risk of developing stomach cancer. Symptoms of H. pylori typically include heartburn, nausea, gas, stomach or abdominal pain, bloating, vomiting, and indigestion.

Fasting for 1 hour required. Should not take antimicrobials, proton pump inhibitors, or bismuth preparations within two weeks prior to testing. Check with physician before stopping any medications.
