The surprising results from the largest case registry to-date
This course is a review and critique of recent research on, as well as clinical evaluation and management of, H2S SIBO.
There is growing interest in small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). In late 2020, a new diagnostic device for SIBO was released which added testing for hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. While this has spawned a burgeoning interest in H2S SIBO clinically, research is lacking. Basic questions including how clinicians are making the diagnosis, what symptoms are present, and what clinicians are using for treatment, remain unanswered. In this presentation we review the results of our case registry of over 100 H2S SIBO cases which represents the largest collection of H2S SIBO cases to-date, providing important early descriptive information on this emerging diagnosis and some clinically actionable findings in terms of diagnosis and treatment from our secondary and exploratory analyses. We also go through case study examples of H2S SIBO evaluation and management.
