The Sydney Protocol is the recommended strategy that guarantees maximum diagnostic yield. This is a prospective uncontrolled cross-sectional clinical trial.\n\nEndoscopy must be performed to take biopsies for detection of Helicobacter pylori in patients with epigastric pain, weight loss, iron-deficiency anemia, individuals with dyspepsia over 60 years of age or younger with alarm symptoms (weight loss, dysphagia, vomiting, gastrointestinal bleeding, among others).\n\nThe Sydney Protocol is the recommended strategy that guarantees maximum diagnostic yield. Histology is expensive since it requires time for biopsy processing and trained personnel for staining and interpretation but it provides additional information on the degree of inflammation and complications such as atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, and malignancy. The modified Sydney protocol includes two biopsies from the antrum, two from the body, and one form the incisura.', 'detailedDescription': 'The hypothesis is that the histopathological study of two biopsies obtained from the gastric antrum for the determination of Helicobacter pylori infection has a similar diagnostic yield compared to the gold standard (Sydney protocol).
