Run by University of Buenos Aires · NCT06579365 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study collects information from doctors in Argentina to see how well different treatments work for Helicobacter pylori infections and to find the best ways to use antibiotics responsibly.

Ideal candidates for this registry are adult patients diagnosed with Helicobacter pylori infection.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are pregnant, lactating, or currently taking antibiotics may not benefit from this registry.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This registry aims to collect data on the management of Helicobacter pylori infections among Argentinean gastroenterologists. It focuses on understanding the effectiveness of various treatment regimens and the local antibiotic resistance profiles. By systematically documenting routine clinical practices, the registry seeks to identify optimal therapies that can be used empirically to improve eradication rates. The study will also explore the principles of antimicrobial stewardship to minimize inappropriate antibiotic use.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could lead to improved treatment strategies for Helicobacter pylori infections, enhancing patient outcomes and reducing antibiotic resistance.
How similar studies have gone: While similar registries have been conducted, this specific approach focusing on Argentinean practices and antibiotic resistance profiles is relatively novel.
