Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infection is mainly diagnosed noninvasively, with susceptibility testing traditionally requiring endoscopy. Treatment is empirical, with clarithromycin-based triple therapy recommended where resistance rates are below 15%. Rising rates of clarithromycin resistance, resulting in high therapy failure rates, are seen worldwide, but U.S. data are limited.
