Resumo: The objective of this paper was to validate tools for schoolchildren to help control Chagas disease vectors in their own homes. Two types of tables were produced, one reporting on the presence of risk factors in residences and the other to record the presence of triatomines. The materials were tested in the field by 100 students from an endemic area in Argentina and validated by technical personnel. The results obtained by students concerning the percentage of households with risk factors and vector-positive residences were similar to those obtained by the technical personnel. This information allowed teachers to classify the risk levels in the residences as at "high-risk", "risk", or "no risk". The information provides an important aid for health workers, and it is therefore recommended to include this educational strategy in the surveillance phase of the Chagas disease control program.

Se desarrollaron dos tipos de planillas, una sobre la presencia de factores de riesgos y otra para registrar la presencia de vinchucas en las viviendas. Estas planillas fueron puestas a prueba en campo por 100 escolares de escuelas de áreas endémicas de Argentina y validadas en campo por personal técnico. Los resultados obtenidos por los escolares sobre porcentajes de viviendas que presentan factores de riesgos y viviendas positivas fueron similares a los obtenidos por el personal técnico. La información recabada permitió a los docentes caracterizar las viviendas como "con mucho riesgo", "de riesgo" o "sin riesgo". Esta información sobre nivel de riesgo de las viviendas puede ser una importante ayuda para los agentes primarios de salud. Por lo tanto, se recomienda incluir estas estrategias educativas en los programas de control, en especial para la fase de vigilancia.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2005-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2485Reports in Public Health; Vol. 21 No. 2 (2005): March/AprilCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 21 n. 2 (2005): Março/Abril1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZspahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2485/4982https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2485/4983Crocco, LilianaRodríguez, ClaudiaCatalá, SilviaNattero, Julietainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:02Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/2485Revistahttps://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:2024-03-06T13:02:54.693096Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
