L2 para Flashcards
what is diagnostic and infective stage of ancylostoma
DS egg in stool
IS filariform larvae
what is mode of infection of ancylostoma
penetration of the skin by the filariform larvae
what is treatment of ancylostomiasis?
-mebendazole 100mg 2 times/day
-oral iron ferrous
-folic acid (help absorption of iron)
what are the parasites cause iron deficiency anemia?
- ancylostoma duodenale
- necator americanus
-schistosoma mansoni
-trichuris trichuria
explain the pathogenesis that cause iron deficiency anemia in hook worm infection?
hypoalbuminemia
occult blood
reduce serum iron
marked eosinophilia
which type of anemia caused by hook worm infection
hypochromic microcytic anemia
how hypoalbuminemia occur in ancylostoma
occur due to lss of plasma and tissue fluid from injured mucosal site cause subcutanous edema
describe nutritional impairment cause by ancylostoma ?
-iron deficiency anemia
-hypoalbuminemia
-stunted growth in heavy infection
describe 2 stages of ancylostoma duodenale
migration stage
intestinal stage:
-epigastric pain
-nausea
-occult blood
-melena
what is diagnosis of ancylostoma
hypochromic microcytic anemia
marked eosinophilia
reduced serum albumin
reduced iron
reduced total protein
occult blood in stool
necator americanus is differ from ancylostoma duodenale in:
smaller
mouth capsule smaller
spicule shorter
less pathogenic because it sucks blood 0.03 cc while ancylostoma sucks 0.3 cc
lays less egg
