Abstract

OBJECTIVE

To measure the prevalence of Giardia lamblia infection and the associated risk factors among patients attending Kochore town health center, Ethiopia.

METHODS

Stool samples were collected and assessed by direct microscopy, and antigen detection was performed using the ELISA technique. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test and a P-value<0.05 was considered statistically significant.

RESULTS

Ninety-eight out of 422 (23.22%) stool samples were positive by microscopy. Using the ELISA technique in stool samples, 160 of 422 (37.91%) samples were positive. Risk factors such as health center level, occupation, monthly income, educational status, toilet availability at home, water source, drinking water treatment, container type, waste disposal system, and eating unwashed fruits and vegetables were significantly associated with G. lamblia infection.

CONCLUSION

Implementation of health education campaigns and emphasis on the importance of environmental sanitation and personal hygiene will help reduce the health burden.

摘要

目的

在埃塞俄比亚科乔雷镇卫生中心就诊的患者中，检测蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫感染的流行率及其相关危险因素。

方法

采集粪便样本，直接显微镜检查，并使用 ELISA 技术进行抗原检测。采用卡方检验对数据进行分析，P 值<0.05 被认为具有统计学意义。

结果

422 份粪便样本中，98 份（23.22%）通过显微镜检查呈阳性。使用 ELISA 技术检测粪便样本，422 份样本中 160 份（37.91%）呈阳性。卫生中心级别、职业、月收入、教育程度、家庭厕所可用性、水源、饮用水处理、容器类型、废物处理系统以及食用未清洗的水果和蔬菜等风险因素与 G. lamblia 感染显著相关。
