Resumo: Parasitic infections represent an important public health problem as they have a high prevalence in the population. Among the most prominent are the enteroparasitosis, which can affect nutritional balance, reduce food intake and interfere with nutrient absorption. In addition, they can cause significant damage to the host's intestines. The frequency of parasitic diseases varies according to the region, basic sanitation conditions and socioeconomic level. The present study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of enteroparasitosis in children and employees of a Child Education Center, administered by a non-governmental organization, in a municipality in the Southeast region of Brazil. Parasitological stool examinations were performed using the spontaneous sedimentation technique, in 106 individuals. Of the total number of individuals analyzed, 34 (32.07%) were positive for intestinal parasites. The most frequent protozoa were Entamoeba coli (17.92%) and Endolimax nana (9.43%) and among the helminths, Trichuris trichiura, Hookworm and Hymenolepis nana stood out, all with a prevalence of 1.89%. The occurrence of intestinal parasites and commensal in the analyzed population increase the need for educational, prophylactic actions and the correct treatment of parasitized individuals, thus guaranteeing a better health quality for the population.

Dentre as de maior destaque estão as enteroparasitoses, que podem afetar o equilíbrio nutricional, reduzir a ingesta alimentar e interferir na absorção de nutrientes, além de causar danos significativos ao intestino do hospedeiro. A frequência de parasitoses sofre variações quanto a região, condições de saneamento básico e nível socioeconômico. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a prevalência de enteroparasitoses em crianças e funcionários de um Centro de Educação Infantil, administrado por uma organização não governamental, em um município da região Sudeste do Brasil. Exames parasitológicos de fezes foram realizados, através da técnica de sedimentação espontânea, em 106 indivíduos. Do total de indivíduos analisados, 34 (32,07%) apresentaram-se positivos para enteroparasitos. Os protozoários mais frequentes foram Entamoeba coli (17,92%) e Endolimax nana (9,43%) e entre os helmintos, destacaram-se Trichuris trichiura, Ancilostomídeo e Hymenolepis nana, todos com prevalência de 1,89%. A ocorrência dos parasitos e comensais intestinais na população analisada reforça a necessidade de ações educativas, profiláticas e ao correto tratamento dos indivíduos parasitados, garantindo, assim, uma melhor qualidade de saúde da população.Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo - UFES2020-09-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufes.br/bjpe/article/view/32028Brazilian Journal of Production Engineering; Vol. 6 No. 6 (2020): Edição Especial “Tecnologia e Inovação na Saúde” (Outubro); 158-165Brazilian Journal of Production Engineering; Vol. 6 Núm. 6 (2020): Edição Especial “Tecnologia e Inovação na Saúde” (Outubro); 158-165Brazilian Journal of Production Engineering; v. 6 n. 6 (2020): Edição Especial “Tecnologia e Inovação na Saúde” (Outubro); 158-1652447-5580reponame:Brazilian Journal of Production Engineeringinstname:Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES)instacron:UFESporhttps://periodicos.ufes.br/bjpe/article/view/32028/21581Copyright (c) 2020 Brazilian Journal of Production Engineering - BJPEhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlmeida, Clarissa PereiraSouza, Marco Antônio Andrade de 2023-01-08T16:36:13Zoai:periodicos.ufes.br:article/32028Revistahttps://periodicos.ufes.br/bjpePUBhttps://periodicos.ufes.br/bjpe/oairodrigo.r.freitas@ufes.br2447-55802447-5580opendoar:2023-01-13T10:36:29.802619Brazilian Journal of Production Engineering - Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES)false
