Urea Breath Test (UBT) With Breath Hp System /BreathID Hp Lab System Pediatrics

December 19, 2022 updated by: Meridian Bioscience, Inc.

Clinical Confirmation Study to Confirm Safety and Presence of H. Pylori With 13C-Urea Breath Test Using the BreathID® Hp and BreathID® Hp Lab Systems in the Pediatric Population

Clinical Study to Confirm Safety and Accuracy in Detection of H. pylori with 13C-Urea Breath Test using the BreathID® Hp and BreathID® Hp Lab Systems in the Pediatric Population

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Pediatric subjects with indication for H.pylori testing, will be tested with both stool antigen as a reference standard and a urea breath test using the BreathID® Hp and BreathID® Hp Lab Systems. The BreathID® Hp system continuously measures breath via a nasal cannula and the BreathID® Hp Lab System measures breath collection bags before and after ingestion of a solution with enriched carbon 13 urea and citric acid. The stool sample will be provided within a week of the breath tests and will be analyzed by a central laboratory. Safety and overall efficacy will be assessed.

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Indication for Helicobacter pylori testing
Walk in basis: any pediatric subjects with indication for Helicobacter pylori testing will be enrolled if they meet study eligibility criteria and will perform stool test and urea breath test within a week of each other.
Breath will be analyzed for change in carbon 13 content in breath after ingestion of carbon 13 enriched urea
Breath will be analyzed for change in carbon 13 content in breath after ingestion of carbon 13 enriched urea
Each subject was asked to perform a stool test in parallel to the breath test.
