Steve,

<<Since H.pylori is a serious (but not critical), infection, the physician could simply follow up with another Quidel retest after a period following the end of Helidac treatment.>>

If Qdel test works based on immunologic-antibody response to the infection, expect levels of antibody to remain high for some time after the tx. You should check a biology or immunology text. It just would likely be of no value to retest after you know they are infected.

Best,

Greg
