Ayurvedic Treatment for RUT (Rapid Urease Test) Positive - Helicobacter Pylori (H. Pylori) Infection

'RUT' is an acronym for 'Rapid Urease Test' which a commonly used biopsy-based method for diagnosing Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. H. pylori is a major human pathogen which can cause progressive gastroduodenal damage. It is a kind of bacteria which is believed to be responsible for chronic gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining), peptic ulcers, gastrointestinal (digestive) disorders, and potentially gastric cancer.

The RUT -- also called the Campylobacter-like organism test (CLO test) or, simply, Urease test -- is a simple and cheap diagnostic test for H. pylori infection. It is a popular diagnostic test because of its rapid and accurate characters. This test can effectively detect the presence of urease enzyme in or on the gastric mucosa. The basis of the test is H. pylori bacteria's ability to secrete the urease enzyme, which catalyzes the conversion of urea to ammonia and carbon dioxide.

For establishing the diagnosis of H. pylori infection, the RUT is performed at the time of gastroscopy. To perform this screening test, doctors take a biopsy of mucosa from the antrum of the stomach, and place it into a medium which contains urea and phenol red (or some other indicator). The urease produced by the H. pylori bacteria hydrolyzes urea to ammonia. As a result, the pH of the medium gets raised, and the color of the specimen changes from yellow (Negative) to red (Positive).

The term 'RUT Positive', therefore, means that the results of the Rapid Urease Test (RUT) are positive.

The RUT is generally carried out for patients who suffer from the following two conditions: (i) Helicobacter pylori gastrointestinal tract infection, and (ii) Stomach cancer.

According to Ayurveda, the H. pylori infection, for which the RUT is a popular diagnostic test, results from an imbalance of 'Pitta' dosha in the body. The H. pylori infection, as per Ayurvedic experts, is triggered by the onset of 'Amla pitta' --- a health condition associated with acidity. The infection can spread via direct mouth-to-mouth contact between an infected person and a healthy individual, or by consuming contaminated food and water, or living in unhygienic conditions.

SYMPTOMS OF H. PYLORI INFECTION DETECTED BY RUT

Some of the most common symptoms of H. pylori infection, which can be detected with the help of the RUT diagnostic test, are:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Burning sensation in the abdomen
  • Bloating
  • Frequent burping
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Heartburn
  • Fever
  • Loss of appetite (Anorexia)
  • Sudden weight loss.

TREATMENT OF H. PYLORI INFECTION DETECTED BY RUT

After the RUT diagnostic test establishes the diagnosis of H. pylori infection, the patients suffering from the infection need to be treated properly, in a timely manner, because the infection can potentially lead to several other health problems. For treating H. pylori infection, doctors generally prescribe a combination of antibiotics and acid-reducing medicines to the patients.
