An evaluation of health problems is done in a village in Eastern Madagascar, where takes place a development programme. 217 inhabitants go through physical examination and lab tests are performed (Blood smear - Thick drop. Emmel test. Stools examination for parasites and enteroviruses). The epidemiologic investigation reveals the prevalences of Malaria (39,4 p. 100) intestinal schistosomiasis (59,9 p. 100) Ascaridiasis (61,3 p. 100) Hookworm (29,9 p. 100) Trichuriasis (19,8 p. 100) and sickle cells anemia (4,80 p. 100). The signs and symptoms are analysed, particularly spleen enlargement which is shown to be due to schistosomiasis. The local transmition pattern of schistosomiasis is investigated and, according to the malacological findings, is thought to be intermittent. The determination of the local hookworm is started. It should be Necator americanus. The sanitary programme to be set is considered regarding the local contexte.
在马达加斯加东部的一个村庄开展了一项健康问题评估,那里正在实施一个发展项目。217名居民接受了体格检查并进行了实验室检测(血液涂片——厚滴血片。埃梅耳试验。粪便寄生虫和肠道病毒检查)。流行病学调查揭示了疟疾(39.4%)、肠道血吸虫病(59.9%)、蛔虫病(61.3%)、钩虫病(29.9%)、鞭虫病(19.8%)和镰状细胞贫血(4.80%)的患病率。对体征和症状进行了分析,尤其发现脾肿大是由血吸虫病所致。对血吸虫病的当地传播模式进行了调查,根据软体动物学研究结果,认为传播模式是间歇性的。开始对当地的钩虫进行鉴定,推测应为美洲板口线虫。根据当地情况考虑制定卫生计划。
