血吸虫病是一种高度流行的疾病,尤其是在移民人口中,并且与流行地区以外的严重发病率和诊断延迟有关。由于这些原因,西班牙传染病和临床微生物学学会(SEIMC)和西班牙热带医学和国际卫生学会(SEMTSI)制定了一份联合共识文件,作为筛查指南,这种疾病在流行地区以外的诊断和治疗。来自两个社会的专家小组确定了要回答的主要问题,并根据当时可用的科学证据提出了建议。该文件已由两个协会的成员进行审查,以供最终批准。
Schistosomiasis is a highly prevalent disease, especially in immigrant populations, and is associated with significant morbidity and diagnostic delays outside endemic areas. For these reasons, the Spanish Society of Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology (SEIMC) and the Spanish Society of Tropical Medicine and International Health (SEMTSI) have developed a joint
consensus document to serve as a guide for the screening, diagnosis and treatment of this disease outside endemic areas. A panel of experts from both societies identified the main questions to be answered and developed recommendations based on the scientific evidence available at the time. The document was reviewed by the members from both societies for final approval.
