Telephone-Based Re-education for Hp Eradication

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Helicobacter Pylori Infection
Interventions
Behavioral: telephone-based re-education
Behavioral: First education at the clinic
Registration Number
NCT03193450
Lead Sponsor
First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong University
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.
