So This study was undertaken to evaluate the correlation of H. Pylori infection with acid peptic disorders. Method: This study was a prospective observational. The duration of this study was from September 2017 to September 2019. The numbers of patients were 150. After the establishment of a clinical diagnosis of an acid peptic disorder, the patient was posted for endoscopy. H. pylori status was determined by the rapid urease test. The data collected included the presenting complaints, clinical signs, endoscopic findings, results of rapid urease test, and histopathological examination. The presence of H pylori infection was correlated with symptoms, and endoscopy findings. Results: In the present study, 150 patients with upper gastrointestinal symptoms were studied It was found that the maximum number of subjects belonged to the age group 31-40 yrs.
