Resumo: According to the World Health Organization (WHO), soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH) are amongst the 17 most neglected tropical diseases and affect more than one billion people in the world's poorest regions. This study aims to evaluate parasite contamination in the sand of children playgrounds in public squares and parks in the municipality of São Paulo. Sand samples from 15 sites were collected in March 2016 and analyzed for parasites using Willis-Mollay (1921) and Faust (1939) techniques. Thirty percent (5/15) of the samples were positive for at least one kind of parasite detected by one of the techniques. Parasite eggs of Ancylostoma sp showed the highest incidence in the samples. These findings indicate that sand contamination in public children playgrounds is considerably important, given the high transmission risk of parasitic diseases to visitors of public squares and parks.

Este trabalho visou avaliar a contaminação, por parasitas, das areias das áreas de recreação infantil de parques e praças públicas do municí­pio de São Paulo. Durante o mês de março de 2016, a areia de 15 parques e praças do municí­pio de São Paulo foram analisadas, por meio de pesquisa parasitológica em laboratório, utilizando-se as técnicas de Willis-Mollay (1921) e Faust (1939). Observou-se que 30% (5/15) dos parques e praças analisados apresentaram amostras positivas para algum tipo de parasita, em pelo menos uma das técnicas empregadas. Os ovos de parasita com maior ocorrência neste estudo foram de Ancylostoma sp. Estes achados revelam que a contaminação da areia das áreas de lazer infantis é uma realidade que deve ser considerada, haja vista o acentuado risco de transmissão de doenças parasitárias para os frequentadores destes locais.   Atas de Saúde Ambiental - ASA (ISSN 2357-7614)2016-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/article/view/1598Atas de Saúde Ambiental - ASA (ISSN 2357-7614); v. 4 n. 1 (2016); 194-2012357-7614reponame:Atas de Saúde Ambientalinstname:Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)instacron:FMUporhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/article/view/1598/1188Copyright (c) 2018 Andrea Barbosa Lunardi Triska, Ana Julia Silva e Alves, Vanessa Aparecida Feijó de Souza, Vanessa Cristinne Victor Rabaquim, Rosely Bianca dos Santos Kurodainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTriska, Andrea Barbosa LunardiAlves, Ana Julia Silva eSouza, Vanessa Aparecida Feijó deRabaquim, Vanessa Cristinne VictorKuroda, Rosely Bianca dos Santos2018-11-08T15:01:32Zoai:ojs.fmu.br:article/1598Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/indexPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/oai||asa.revista@gmail.com2357-76142357-7614opendoar:2018-11-08T15:01:32Atas de Saúde Ambiental - Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)false
