Hospitals are important for vector control of endemic diseases.
To investigate the presence of dengue vectors, 30 locations at a university hospital in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, Brazil, were monitored from January to December 2009 for mosquito eggs using ovitraps placed in high-traffic internal and external areas.
A total of 2,302 eggs were obtained. Positivity rate at different sites ranged from 50.0% to 0.0%, with the highest indices in external areas. The presence of eggs correlated with increasing humidity (r = 9.81; p = 0.0013).
The study aimed to detect and verify the infestation level of the dengue vector and the influence of abiotic factors.
The results indicate that this hospital may be considered an environment for the spread of dengue and hence strategic actions, including control measures and programs aimed at preventing the transmission of this vector, must be implemented.
医院对于地方病的病媒控制至关重要。
为调查登革热媒介的存在情况，于2009年1月至12月在巴西马托格罗索州库亚巴市一家大学医院的30个地点，使用放置在人员流动频繁的内部和外部区域的诱蚊产卵器监测蚊卵。
共获得2302枚卵。不同地点的阳性率在50.0%至0.0%之间，外部区域的指数最高。卵的存在与湿度增加相关（r = 9.81；p = 0.0013）。
该研究旨在检测和核实登革热媒介的侵扰水平以及非生物因素的影响。
结果表明，这家医院可被视为登革热传播的一个环境，因此必须实施包括控制措施和旨在预防该媒介传播的项目在内的战略行动。
