These patients were divided into two groups. One was pretreatment group that included 62 cases and the other one was post-treatment group with 42 cases. Results In pretreat_ment group, there were 24 Hp positive cases and 38 negative ones according to the golden standard, 27 positive and 35 negative according to one-step HpSA assay, and the sensitivity and specificity was 100% and 92% respectively; In post-treatment group, 15 positive and 27 negative according to the golden standard, 19 positive and 23 negative according to one-step HpSA assay, and the sensitivity and specificity 93%and 81% respectively; the total sensitivity and specificity was 97% and 88% respectively. Conclusions HpSA rapid one-step test has good sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of Hp infection and judgment of Hp eradication.
