Resumo: This Chagas disease prevention project via housing improvement aims to determine the efficiencyof different interventions in vector control. The following study describes the target communities, disease magnitude, and housing improvements. Transmission levels are analysed from an ecological and socioeconomic perspective. Special interest was focused on the peridomicile as the origin of domiciliary reinfestation. In the original project, three intervention programs were proposed, one for each of the three communities: (a) an insecticide spraying program; (b) a housing improvement program; and (c) a combined program of spraying and housing improvement. The three communities currently have different risks of exposure to triatominae reinfestation as a consequence of the type of intervention carried out. A new multidisciplinary approach which integrates participatory, community-based research and socioeconomic dimensions will allow to determine the efficiency of models for territorial ordering, community education, and environmental interventions in Chagas disease control.

El siguiente trabajo describe las comunidades intervenidas, la dimensión de la enfermedad y el mejoramiento de la vivienda en el contexto familiar. Los niveles de transmisión se analizan con una perspectiva ecológica y socioeconómica. Especial interés se ha dado al peridomicilio como lugar de origen de las reinfestaciones domiciliares. Tres programas de intervención fueron propuestos para estas tres comunidades: (a) rociado con insecticidas; (b) mejoramiento de la vivienda; y (c) combinado de rociamiento y mejoramiento de la vivienda. En la actualidad, las tres comunidades tienen riesgos de exposición diferentes al proceso de reinfestación triatomínica como consecuencia del tipo de intervención realizada. Un nuevo abordaje transdisciplinario, que integre la investigación participativa de las comunidades y las dimensiones socio-epidemiológicas, permitirá determinar la efectividad de modelos de ordenamiento territorial, de educación comunitaria y del ambiente sobre el control de la enfermedad de Chagas.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2001-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1645Reports in Public Health; Vol. 17 No. 7 (2001): Supplement 1Cadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 17 n. 7 (2001): Suplemento 11678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1645/3278https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1645/3279Rojas-de-Arias, Antonietainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:26:33Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/1645Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:56.110955Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
