Introducing the PRIMA Professional H. pylori Antigen Test


For Rapid and Simple Detection of Helicobacter pylori Infection

Helicobacter pylori infection presents a significant disease burden in the gastrointestinal (GI) care pathway, presenting with gastritis and ulceration of the stomach and duodenum or non-specific symptoms like nausea, satiety, reflux, and loss of appetite, among others. If left untreated, those with H. pylori infection are significantly more likely to develop stomach cancer. Therefore, identifying and treating these patients quickly improves outcomes and enables more efficient patient management.

The PRIMA Professional H. pylori antigen test (Sentinel Diagnostics) offers a simple, non-invasive, and accurate diagnostic tool to support this GI pathway and assist in the clinical decision-making process. Similar to its predecessor, the Easy-Card H. pylori Faecal Antigen test, this new assay offers continued accuracy and repeatability (>96% clinical specificity and >95% clinical sensitivity, and 100% concordance with Easy Card over 50 samples), providing a valuable tool with which to help diagnose and triage GI patients.

  • Specific sandwich EIA test for H. pylori antigen
  • Non-invasive faecal test
  • Results within 10 minutes
  • Convenient test pack, with individually wrapped cassettes
