Method for rapid identification of infections and/or risk situations related to gastroduodenal pathologies and machine for performing the method

A method for immediate identification and rapid comparative assessment of indicators of the presence of infections and/or risk situations related to gastroduodenal pathologies, comprising the steps of:

• during an endoscopic test, aspirating a preset quantity of gastric juices and sending at least part of said aspirated gastric juices to a control unit, where said part of aspirated gastric juices is subjected to at least one analysis, the outcome of which is provided before said endoscopic test ends.

A machine for performing the method for identification and assestment of indicators of the presence of infections and/or risk situations related to gastroduodenal pathologies, comprising a measurement unit that is constituted by a container supplied by means for aspirating gastric juices in which an agitator of the mixture of gastric juice, reagents and water operates, and at least one probe for sensing the values of the analyses, a hydraulic section that comprises a set of tanks for the reagents required for the analyses and for the water, which are connected to respective apparatuses for feeding said measurement unit and to a pump for feeding water into the stomach of the patient, an apparatus for controlling the temperature of said container, and an electrical section, which comprises a programmable control unit for actuating and controlling said feeder apparatuses and said measurement unit and is suitable to determine the test execution methods.
