Brief Summary:
To observe the efficacy of cefuroxime-containing bismuth quadruple regimen in the eradication treatment of Helicobacter pylori, and to evaluate whether it can be used as a remedial treatment for Helicobacter pylori after initial or repeated treatment failure.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Helicobacter Pylori Infection Drug: Cefuroxime containing bismuth quadruple treatment Drug: Classic bismuth quadruple treatment Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
Introducing cefuroxime into the remedy treatment of Helicobacter pylori, on the one hand, the investigators will observe whether cefuroxime can replace tetracycline like amoxicillin, on the other hand, the investigators will observe whether it can reduce the rate of adverse effects caused by tetracycline and avoid the allergy of penicillin. If the experiment is successful, it will provide an effective and safe second-line treatment for the majority of patients with failed treatment of Helicobacter pylori.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Classic bismuth quadruple treatment group Drug: Classic bismuth quadruple treatment

Classic bismuth quadruple treatment:

Rabeprazole 20mg bid po, Colloidal Bismuth Pectin 200mg bid po, Tetracycline 500mg qid po, Metronidazole 400mg tid po Treatment duration is 14 days.


Experimental: Cefuroxime containing bismuth quadruple treatment group Drug: Cefuroxime containing bismuth quadruple treatment

Cefuroxime containing bismuth quadruple treatment:

Rabeprazole 20mg bid po, Colloidal Bismuth Pectin 200mg bid po, Cefuroxime 500mg bid po, Metronidazole 400mg tid po Treatment duration is 14 days.





Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Comparison of success rates after 14 days of eradicate treatment with helicobacter pylori using a bismuth quadruple regimen containing cefuroxime and a classic bismuth quadruple regimen [ Time Frame: The duration of treatment is 14 days. A C13 UBT will be performed 1 month after treatment. ]
    The comparison of eradication rate (0-100%), it is better to have a higher eradication rate.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. The Success rate of cefuroxime-containing bismuth quadruple regimen in the treatment of refractory Helicobacter pylori after 14 days [ Time Frame: A C13 UBT will be performed 1 month after treatment. ]
    The eradication rate of new regimen in refractory Helicobacter pylori treatment (0-100%)

  2. In vitro culture and drug sensitivity test of Helicobacter pylori were conducted to observe the drug resistance rate of Helicobacter pylori to cefuroxime, tetracycline and metronidazole. [ Time Frame: before the treatment ]
    The drug resistance rate of Helicobacter pylori to cefuroxime, tetracycline and metronidazole(0-100%)

  3. Adverse effect rate and safety of cefuroxime-containing bismuth quadruple regimen and classical bismuth quadruple regimen in patients with refractory Helicobacter pylori. [ Time Frame: one month after treatment. ]
