| Resumo: | Schistosomiasis mansoni is an infectious parasitic disease, and it is estimated that the 25 risk mothers are at risk of contracting a disease, and that 2.5 to 6 million are infected (WHO, 2009), which is important for helminth. Schistosoma mansoni, is endemic in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. The adult forms inhabit the mesenteric vessels of the definitive host (man) and the intermediate forms (cercariae) develop in snails aquatic gastropods of the genus Biomphalaria. The disease is also endemic in underdeveloped or developing continents, where preventive measures are much more difficult due to factors ranging from the effective propagation of intermediate hosts to the poor living conditions of the population. It is a helminth of water transport where it would surround it in the water penetrating actively by the skin of the individual. To inform and evaluate the prevalence of schistosomiasis in the rural and urban areas of Pureza / RN-Brasil. The study in question is a descriptive analysis, where information acquired through the Municipal Secretariat of Public Health of Pureza by the Epidemiological Surveillance Sector was used in conjunction with the State Secretariat of Public Health of Rio Grande do Norte (SESAP / RN) with the variables: locality and year in the period between 2008 and 2017. Among the places that presented extremely high positive cases were: Centro in the year 2008, Olho d’ Agua in the year 2011 and Bebida Velha in the year 2014, with positivity for schistosomiasis equal to 32, 24 and 27, respectively. Although the years were different, it was observed that for the other analyzed localities there was a significant decrease in the number of cases. This result can be attributed to underreporting in the years studied since not all localities have been worked on. In view of this, it is relevant to continue the execution of the Schistosomiasis Control Program (PCE) in an uninterrupted manner in this municipality, in addition to measures to control environmental and educational risk factors, in an attempt to eradicate this disease. |
