摘要: We evaluated the prevalence of Chagas disease using a rapid screening test (Chagas Stat-Pak), confirmed by ELISA, in Carapari, village 9000 inhabitants southern Bolivian Chaco. The Trypanosoma cruzi was estimated sample 995 people. adjusted on age 51.2% and proportionally related to age. also observed very significant cline from south north locality, where ranged 40 80%. In children younger than 11 years, 21.5%, which importance residual vector transmission despite several years control. Among women procreation age, 63.9%, resulting high risk congenital transmission. control requires an increase improvement dwellings before considering children's treatment with trypanocide.
