to describe schistosomiasis control actions and its epidemiological situation in Pernambuco, Brazil, 2010-2016.
this was a descriptive study using data from the Schistosomiasis Surveillance and Control Program Information System for 116 municipalities, including indicators related to control actions (population surveyed, tests performed, treatment coverage) and epidemiological actions (positivity, parasite load, other helminthiases).
Health Regions II, III, IV, V and XII, which are traditionally endemic, registered higher average percentages for control actions (population surveyed [6.5%, 6.0%, 2.0%, 12.0%, and 13.0%], tests performed [75.0%, 75.5%, 74.0%, 74.0%, and 68.5%], and treatment coverage [71.0%, 82.5%, 82.0%, 91.0%, and 73.0%], respectively), and higher average percentages for epidemiological variables (positivity [3.5%, 8.0%, 1.0%, 2.0%, and 6.5%], high parasite load [0.1%, 0.7%, 0.02%, 0.03%, and 0.5%], and other helminthiases [4.0%, 11.0%, 4.0%, 6.0%, and 8.0%], respectively).
control actions need to be expanded in traditionally endemic regions.
描述巴西伯南布哥州 2010-2016 年血吸虫病控制措施及其流行情况。
这是一项描述性研究,使用了来自血吸虫病监测和控制规划信息系统的 116 个城市的数据,包括与控制措施(调查人口、检查数量、治疗覆盖率)和流行病学措施(阳性率、寄生虫负荷、其他寄生虫病)相关的指标。
传统流行地区的第二、第三、第四、第五和第十二卫生区报告了更高的控制行动平均百分比(调查人口[6.5%、6.0%、2.0%、12.0%和 13.0%]、检查数量[75.0%、75.5%、74.0%、74.0%和 68.5%]和治疗覆盖率[71.0%、82.5%、82.0%、91.0%和 73.0%]),以及更高的流行病学变量平均百分比(阳性率[3.5%、8.0%、1.0%、2.0%和 6.5%]、高寄生虫负荷[0.1%、0.7%、0.02%、0.03%和 0.5%]和其他寄生虫病[4.0%、11.0%、4.0%、6.0%和 8.0%])。
需要在传统流行地区扩大控制措施。
