S. Infecciologia – Toxocarose. Protocolo de Actuação<br />

restringir o acesso de cães e gatos a jardins, parques infantis e<br />

outros locais onde habitualmente as crianças possam ser<br />

expostas aos ovos embrionados deste parasita.<br />

Não menos importante seria a desparasitação dos animais<br />

domésticos, principal agente transmissor da doença, sendo os<br />

fármacos mais frequentemente utilizados a dietilcarbamazina<br />

e o fenbendazol 4 . Para isso, deverão ser concebidas medidas<br />

conjuntas por organismos de Saúde Pública e de Veterinários.<br />

Outro aspecto seria melhorar as condições sanitárias de regiões<br />

com carências, principalmente no que diz respeito à confecção<br />

de alimentos e locais onde habitualmente brincam crianças.<br />

A correcção de alguns comportamentos de risco como a geofagia<br />

e a pica também é eficaz na prevenção da infestação por<br />

Toxocara e por outros parasitas 4,5,7 .<br />

Protocolo aprovado pela Secção de Infecciologia<br />
