Telephone-Based Re-education for Hp Eradication
- Conditions
- Helicobacter Pylori Infection
- Interventions
- Behavioral: telephone-based re-educationBehavioral: First education at the clinic
- Registration Number
- NCT03193450
- Brief Summary
It was suggested that the patient compliance plans an important role in the Hp eradication. However, data on whether re-education could improve the eradication rate are lacking. We consider that re-education on patients by telephone during the process of drug administration could increase the eradication rate in Hp infected patients.
We hypothesized that telephone re-education during the whole process of drug administration would improve the compliance of patients and ultimately increase the Hp eradication rate.

Group Intervention Description Re-education group telephone-based re-education Patients in this arm will receive a repeated instruction by telephone in terms of both calling and message at the forth, seventh, tenth day after the start of treatment. Re-education group First education at the clinic Patients in this arm will receive a repeated instruction by telephone in terms of both calling and message at the forth, seventh, tenth day after the start of treatment. Non re-education group First education at the clinic Patients in this arm only received an instruction card about the drug administration at the clinic by doctors but no re-education by telephone during treatment
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Hp eradication rate 4-6 weeks after the end of drug administration Eradication rate is the proportion of patients with eradicated-Hp. Hp infection was considered eradicated when negative results were obtained by 13carbon urea breath test at 4-6 weeks after the end of drug administration
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Symptoms relief rate 4-6 weeks after the end of drug administration The symptoms were recorded according to Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale.
Adverse events 4-6 weeks after the end of drug administration The terms and grade of adverse events will be presented according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE: version 4.0)
