An Economic Modeling Study of Helicobacter pylori Eradication: Comparison of DPO-Based PCR and Empirical Treatment.

Conclusions: Based on economic modeling, the cost for a successful eradication using DPO-based PCR would be similar or superior to the expected cost of a successful eradication with a 14-day empirical treatment when the first-line eradication rate is ≤80%.
