Prevalencia de Giardiasis en guarderías infantiles de Tiabaya – Arequipa, Perú, 2006
Giardiasisis a cosmopolitan infection, it's prevalence around the world vary between 0.5 and 50%. Its
prevalence averages about 15% in Latin America's rural population. Because there is very little
information on the prevalence of Giardia infection in our city, we decided to investigate giardiasis
prevalence in preschool children of Tiabaya`s district kindergartens, Arequipa province, Peru.
Children`s parents were interviewed and fecal samples were collected from 104 children. Samples were
processed by modified Teleman technique. The prevalence of Giardia intestinaliswas 25.96%; 70.37%
of samples had a single parasite and 29.63% had other parasites. Most of the cases came from rural
places with inadequate rubbish elimination. Diarrhea and appetite diminution were the most common
symptoms.
