Scraping on enterobiosis. How to take the children, what it is, that analysis shows, Hemotest as preparing, reference period action

WHO statistics show that according to the data registered through scrapes on enterobiosis cases, one in seven people were exposed to infection gelmitnymi infections. Particularly at risk are young children, every day are in educational institutions.

What is scraping on enterobiosis

Scraping on Enterobiasis - a clinical study to help identify the possible manifestation of activity in the body of parasitic worms - pinworms. The disease is caused by their presence, often called the disease of dirty hands. This name is more familiar, since this method of infection is most common among men.

The disease occurs sequentially, and includes 5 stages:

1. Contact parasitic organisms in the human body occurs through the respiratory tract or oral cavity.
2. Within two weeks, the larvae develop. They turn into individuals who can multiply and produce offspring.
3. Parasites are located in the small or large intestine.
4. At night, the female laid eggs of helminths, for this it is necessary to go through the anus. In the process the liquid is a selection operation which leads to the occurrence of itch. You can also notice that the skin red.
5. After laying eggs the female dies.

The study shows that for a child infected with parasites, laying the night can be particularly troublesome. And in the morning will feel severe itching that trigger the desire to scratch the anus.

To determine the presence of the disease need to collect scrapings enterobiosis a child. Thus, often it occurs as usual and autoinfection. This type is especially common among children who are accustomed to nibble nails or licking your fingers.

With long-term absence of treatment in the body begin to occur disorders: increased gassing rate varies intestinal microflora, skin rashes appear characteristic. There are problems with sleep: it becomes more difficult to fall asleep, more and more cases of sleep interruptions during the night. Most often manifested severe headaches. The general condition is also strongly deteriorated.

Indications for testing

The presence of symptoms is a good reason to visit the doctor and analyzes. In our country, a disease of dirty hands is very common, so do not deny the possibility of infection.

Among the possible causes of the disease can be different things:

• Eating foods that have not undergone heat treatment is good.
• Neglect of personal hygiene or paying insufficient attention to them.
• The presence of these bad habits like nail biting and licking his fingers. This paragraph relates more specifically to young children, the most common self-infection.
  
• When sharing items with an infected person, or close body contact (one of them also includes hugs and shaking hands) should be very careful, because there is a high risk of transmission of disease.
• It should abandon the use of dirty (or poorly washed) fruits and vegetables. Particular attention should be paid to the summer, when the risk increases the interaction of insects with food. Failure to do so increases the risk of infection.
• The raw water is not recommended to be used from natural sources since.

It is believed that a weak immune system is also one of the reasons for a possible infection.

Attention! If it was discovered that the child is infected, parents and family members who are in close contact with them (brothers, sisters) are also encouraged to visit the lab for tests. The reason for this is the possible transmission of parasitic creatures through everyday.

Consult your doctor standing when you notice the following symptoms:

• Itching or discomfort around the anus after a bowel movement.
• Flatulence.
• Poor digestion and therefore the occurrence of constipation or diarrhea.
• Discoloration of the skin genital and excretory organs.

• Passage body inflammation, urinary tract infection (e.g., yeast).
• Toddlers often seen increased attention to the organs of the excretory system, in particular to the anus.
• Discomfort or pain in the gastrointestinal tract.

Having one of the symptoms of this list is not yet proof that a child in the body are parasites. He can point to another violation, having the same sign. If there is a serious suspicion should immediately go to the doctor. He will not only deal with the symptoms, but also to write out the direction for analysis if necessary.

Analysis may also require hospitalization, admission to the educational institution. Also help is needed when visiting the pool, camp or sanatorium complex.

Preparing a child for the study

How to get a test for enterobiosis in the lab?

Scraping at enterobiasis (as taken in children in the laboratory will be described) is carried by due a number of symptoms that indicate the presence of parasitic creatures in the body, should be made to doctor. He will appoint a number of analyzes, including enterobiosis and antibodies in the blood.

After that, get a referral, you should go to the lab, which will be surveyed.

In the medical facility fee is carried out using a cotton swab or using adhesive tape. Each way assumes that the procedure will take place in several stages. Once the material is collected, the subject is placed in a sterile jar and sent for analysis.

Methods swab at home

With self-holding material collecting for analysis must take into account that it can only be stored in a refrigerator, no more than 8 hours. It is recommended to visit the laboratory immediately after treatment, without exposing scraping thermal processing.

Attention! Analyze worth several times on different days. So the result is the most accurate, the risk of missing the presence of parasites is much reduced. Despite the fact that the conduct of the procedure recommended in the laboratory, there are several ways to take a swab of the house.

The use of adhesive tape

The collection, which takes place by means of adhesive tape, takes place in several stages:

1. The first step is to prepare a tape in advance to get a glass slide.
   Ready kit purchased at a pharmacy if necessary.
2. Very gently, being careful not to touch the sticky layer, it is necessary to make
   Department of adhesive tape from the substrate.
3. Push the child's buttocks, then glue the ribbon to his anal
   hole and leave for a short period of time.
4. Carefully unstick without touching the sticky part, move it on the glass,
   then smooth.
5. Put glass in a sterile container and take to the laboratory where the analysis will be conducted.

If you can not see on the tape parasites, we can not exclude the possibility of their presence. The eggs of some species are so small that they can not be distinguished without the use of special tools. In the laboratories required to use a microscope.

Use of a container for collecting

Set for this assay is sold in a pharmacy. It should include a container with a lid and a cotton swab. If necessary, you can use regular cotton swabs, but it is recommended to give preference to a sterile, acquired a special set.

The procedure is performed in the following sequence:

1. Moisten a cotton swab using glycerine or petroleum jelly.
2. Pushing the baby buttocks, hold the wand at the folds around the anus.
3. Put material collected into a sterile container with a lid.
4. No more than 2 hours is necessary to carry the container to a laboratory for examination. Otherwise, you may receive inaccurate results.

In carrying out this type of analysis are obtained sufficiently accurate results. However, we recommend repeated repetition. This will help to avoid mistakes and allow more accurately determine the presence or absence of parasites in the body.

How the analysis is done and how long the results valid?

On the analysis it takes a little time, because after 8:00 will take place, a chance to discover the presence of parasitic creatures minimal. After visiting the laboratory results can be obtained on the same day. If you need any help in the pool or to the educational institution should conduct an analysis as close as possible to the desired date.

It is worth noting that the results obtained in the laboratory can be considered valid up to 10 days. After the end of the term you want to repeat the procedure.

In the case study showed the absence of parasites, but parents have doubts, it should be re-tested. it is recommended to take the analysis at least three times to obtain the most accurate results.

Police certificates

After the analysis and the results can turn to for help with the doctor. It is worth noting that this should be done not earlier than 10 days before the scheduled date. Otherwise, the result is canceled, and the person will be sent for re-trial.

Getting help for a child will be valid for 3 months, after which need to be screened again. Such a short time due to the fact that the kids are paying less attention to health standards, play in the sandbox, contact with animals. The likelihood of infection is much higher than that of an adult.

What other ways can be found eggs of worms

If the doctor has suspicions about the presence of worms in the body of the child, he shall designate conduct scraping or proposes to carry out a number of additional studies, which include analysis of feces and blood.

In the analysis of blood found not parasites, and the presence of an allergic reaction in an organism that occurs in the presence of foreign substances into the body. This method is often used to confirm the results obtained by scraping.

Analysis of blood from a vein

To diagnose Enterobiasis CBC can be used in children. A young child usually take blood from a finger, but doctors will take from a vein, if necessary.

Changes in the chemical composition of the blood, in particular the level of hemoglobin and white blood cells, point to the possibility of the presence in the body of parasitic creatures. For example, decreased hemoglobin usually confirms that the child infected with pinworms.

fecal

During the analysis of feces can be found not only eggs and larvae and parasites themselves in whole or in fragments. It is recommended to analyze at least 3 times with an interval of 2 weeks. It happens that the presence of parasitic organisms found only in the re-examination.

To increase the accuracy of the result, it is necessary to collect material for delivery in the morning, after waking up. If this is not possible, a jar of feces should be left for storage in the refrigerator until the visit to the lab.

Further actions for a positive result

Scraping on enterobiosis (as taken from the children described above) suggests two possible outcomes: positive and negative. When a positive result is to understand that the disease may be any person, without the possibility of exceptions.

First of all, it should be careful about personal hygiene:

• wash hands frequently;
  
• organize regular change of bed linen;
• conduct regular cleaning.

The doctor prescribes a course of drugs that must be taken to get rid of parasites. Experts recommend to undergo treatment for all family members, including those who have signs of infection did not appear.

After the end of taking the drug should undergo follow-up study.

This will help make sure that the treatment had the desired impact. Children once again taking on scrapings enterobiosis. Get rid of parasites, it is worth thinking about how to exclude the possibility that the child is infected again. baby food should receive sufficient thermal treatment, it will reduce the risk of re-infection.

Medications from enterobiosis

There are many drugs that can be used to treat infections gelmitnyh. Assign them can only physician or parasitology, guided by information about the neglect of the disease and the characteristics of individual development. The main part of the means is a tablet and a suspension.

If the child can not take them for a number of reasons can be assigned ointments and suppositories:

• Gelmiton. This drug is considered to be one of the most effective in the fight against gelmitami.
