Abstract
ABSTRACT: 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.
RESUMEN: La esquistosomiasis es una enfermedad de elevada prevalencia, especialmente en población inmigrante, asociada a importante morbilidad y retraso diagnóstico fuera de zona endémica. Por estas razones, la Sociedad Española de Enfermedades Infecciosas y Microbiología Clínica (SEIMC) y la Sociedad Española de Medicina Tropical y Salud Internacional (SEMTSI) han elaborado un documento conjunto de consenso que sirva de guía para el cribado, diagnóstico y tratamiento de esta patología en zonas no endémicas. Un panel de expertos de ambas sociedades identificó las principales preguntas a responder y elaboró las recomendaciones siguiendo la evidencia científica disponible en el momento. El documento fue revisado por los miembros de ambas sociedades para su aprobación final.
