Resumo: | The occurrence of acute Chagas disease (ACD) by oral transmission related to food consumption, untill 2004, was a little known or investigated event. Currently becomes frequent in the Amazon region and is related to the occurrence of recent outbreaks in several states.Recent cases in Brazil of ACD are related to the consumption of acai juice, considered essencial food in the diet of the population in the Northern Region. The acai berry has been appreciated both for its nutritional value, as by its characteristic flavor, ceasing to be consumed in the producing regions, extending throughout the brazilian territory and even exported to other countries.The aim of this study was to highlight the new challenges faced by public health agencies in preventing the transmission of Chagas disease by consumption of açaí. Although there are important strategies being implemented by Brazil to combat Chagas disease transmitted via food, there is still a need for incentives to search for that knowledge generated assist in understanding the oral transmission of this parasite and its better interpretation of epidemiological, prevention and control. Besides the implementation of Good Hygiene Practices, Good Manufacturing Practices and the rapprochement between science institutions and producers of acai to contribute in solving this problem. |

Atualmente tornou-se frequente na região amazônica e está relacionada à ocorrência de surtos recentes em diversos estados brasileiros.Os casos recentes notificados no Brasil de DCA estão relacionados ao consumo do suco de açaí, considerado um alimento essencial na dieta da população da Região Norte e muito apreciado nos demais estados brasileiros e em outros países.O objetivo deste trabalho foi destacar os novos desafios a serem enfrentados pelos órgãos de saúde pública na prevenção da transmissão da doença de Chagas pelo consumo de açaí.Apesar de existirem importantes estratégias sendo implementadas pelo Brasil no combate à doença de Chagas transmitida via alimento, ainda há a necessidade de incentivos à pesquisa para que conhecimentos gerados auxiliem na compreensão da transmissão oral e sua melhor interpretação epidemiológica, de prevenção e controle. A implementação das Boas Práticas de Higiene, Boas Práticas de Manufatura e a aproximação entre instituições de ciência e os produtores de açaí também poderão contribuir na solução deste problema.Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade em Saúde2014-11-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed article""Artículo revisado por pares""Artigo avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/35810.3395/vd.v2n4.358Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology ; Vol. 2 No. 4 (2014): November - Vigilância Sanitária e a Promoção da Alimentação Adequada e Saudável: Impasses, Desafios e Perspectivas; 4-11Vigilancia en Salud en Debate: Sociedad, Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 2 Núm. 4 (2014): Noviembre - Vigilância Sanitária e a Promoção da Alimentação Adequada e Saudável: Impasses, Desafios e Perspectivas; 4-11Vigil Sanit Debate, Rio de Janeiro; v. 2 n. 4 (2014): Novembro - Vigilância Sanitária e a Promoção da Alimentação Adequada e Saudável: Impasses, Desafios e Perspectivas; 4-112317-269Xreponame:Vigilância Sanitária em Debateinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/358/160Copyright (c) 2014 Vigilância Sanitária em Debate: Sociedade, Ciência & Tecnologia (Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology) – Visa em Debatehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBarroso Ferreira, Renata TrottaBranquinho, Maria ReginaCardarelli-Leite, Paola2023-06-27T15:08:08Zoai:ojs.visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br:article/358Revistahttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebatePUBhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/oaiincqs.visaemdebate@fiocruz.br || gisele.neves@fiocruz.br2317-269X2317-269Xopendoar:2023-06-27T15:08:08Vigilância Sanitária em Debate - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false |
