Prevalencia de Helmintos Enteroparásitos Zoonóticos y Factores asociados en Caninos Domésticos (canis familiaris) en la Comunidad San Agustín de Callo.

Intestinal helminths are pathogenic agents that affect domestic animals and that through them can infect humans; worldwide there are reports of prevalence of intestinal helminths in canines between 4% and 78% determined by Fecal analysis and post-mortem inspection. This research was conducted with the objective of determining the prevalence of helminths enteroparasites zoonotic and associated factors in Canis familiaris at San Agustín de Callo Community, Mulaló Parish, Latacunga Canton, Cotopaxi Province. Data was collected through a survey and a clinical record where the age, sex, health of the animals and the environment where they live were obtained to determine the prevalence of helminths enteroparasites, also the researcher took a sample of feces per each animal and then they were analyzed in the laboratory using the method of flotation helminth-Ovoscópico, thus determining the positive and negative to parasitic infections. The percentage of prevalence obtained from the 75 samples at San Agustín de Callo community was 52 domestic canines positive to parasitic diseases, equivalent to 69% and 23 canines that do not present positivity to parasitic infections equivalent to 31%. Within the age ranges, it was observed that in canines from 0 to 12 months there are five positive canines equivalent to 11%; from 1 to 5 years there are 40 canines positive to parasitic diseases equivalent to 53% and canines older than five years there are four positives with a 5% equivalence. Animals from 1 to 5 years old have the most significant parasitic load. On the other hand, the researcher has 33 canines of female sex equivalent to 44%; and from the group of males, there are 19 positive animals equivalent to 25%, determining that the females have a more parasitic load. Once the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites was determined, the data was socialized with all the inhabitants at San Agustín de Callo Community by lectures to make known the obtained prevalence, the associated factors that they produce and the zoonosis they cause helminths enteroparasites; so that in the future, authorities can take sanitary controls and avoid health problems into children principally.
