Overview
There is no specific diagnostic laboratory test for peptic ulcer disease but in patient with history of peptic ulcer disease, laboratory test is used to rule out bleeding.
Initial Laboratory Studies
- There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with peptic ulcer disease.
- If there is the history of peptic ulcer disease then following laboratory test can be useful:[1][2][3][4][5][6]
- Complete blood count
- Liver function tests
- Serum lipase and amylase
- Iron studies
- Some patients with Peptic ulcer disease may have reduced serum ferritin, which is usually suggestive of bleeding which requires further endoscopy to rule out bleeding
- Urea breath test (carbon 13) tests:Urea breath tests require the ingestion of urea labeled with the nonradioactive isotope carbon 13 or carbon 14.Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) should be stopped for two weeks before the test. It is used to document eradication therapy and should be performed four to six weeks after completion of eradication therapy.
- Stool monoclonal antigen tests- it detect active infection and can be used as a test of cure. PPIs should be stopped for two weeks before testing.It can be done by following methods:[7][8][9][10][11]
- Enzyme immunoassay
- Immunochromatography
- Antibody tests
