M-14018 Pepsinogen I (PG I) Quantitative Test Kit

Clinical Significance: Serum pepsinogen levels reflect the morphology and function of different parts of the gastric mucosa. PGI (Pepsinogen I) serves as an indicator of the functional status of gastric acid-secreting cells. Increased gastric acid secretion leads to elevated PGI levels, while decreased secretion or atrophy of the gastric mucosal glands results in lower PGI levels.

Usage Scenarios:
Hospitals and Gastroenterology Departments: For diagnosing and monitoring conditions related to gastric acid secretion, such as gastritis, gastric ulcers, and gastric atrophy, by measuring PGI levels.
Primary Care Clinics: For routine screening of patients with symptoms of gastric disorders to assess gastric mucosal health.
Diagnostic Laboratories: For routine testing of serum PGI levels as part of comprehensive assessments of gastric function.
Cancer Screening Programs: For early detection of gastric mucosal changes that may indicate a higher risk of gastric cancer.
Suitable Countries and Regions:
Developed Countries: United States, Canada, Western Europe (e.g., Germany, France, UK), Japan, Australia, etc., where advanced diagnostic tools are widely used for comprehensive gastric health management and early detection of gastric disorders.
Emerging Markets: China, India, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, Middle East, etc., where healthcare systems are improving diagnostic capabilities for gastric health and expanding access to modern diagnostic tools.
Global Health Programs: International health initiatives focused on enhancing the detection and management of gastric disorders in low-resource settings.
