Resumen
La investigación realizada de este trabajo se basó en determinar la Prevalencia de Uncinaria spp. en perros domésticos de la ciudadela “Martha de Roldós”, Guayas. Ecuador. El estudio fue dirigido de una forma cuantitativa, bajo un diseño no experimental, descriptivo, transversal, correlacional y la unidad de análisis fueron las heces de 90 perros muestreados. Para el estudio se recogió muestras dirigidas al diagnóstico de laboratorio mediante estudios coproparasitarios directos, de flotación y de sedimentación con solución salina sobresaturada. Una vez realizada la base de datos en Microsoft Excel, se codificaron y se evaluaron los resultados, indicando que la prevalencia de Uncinaria spp. en perros domésticos de la ciudadela fue del 9.9%. En los resultados también se reportaron veinte seis casos de Ancylostoma caninum que representan el 28.8% y dos casos de Strongyloides stercoralis que representan el 2.2%. Las variables consideras fueron sexo, edad, raza, síntomas, desparasitación, mortalidad y morbilidad, las cuales fueron asociadas de manera independiente. La variable independiente raza, no fue un factor determinante en esta investigación, debido a que el 100% de los canes muestreados eran de raza mestiza. En base a los resultados se recomienda gestionar campañas de concientización para controlar y prevenir parásitos gastrointestinales en función de bienestar a la población debido a que la Uncinaria spp. es una enfermedad de tipo zoonótica.
The research carried out in this work was based on determining the prevalence of Uncinaria spp. in domestic dogs of the "Martha de Roldós" citadel, Guayas. Ecuador. The study was conducted in a quantitative way, under a non-experimental, descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational design and the unit of analysis was the feces of 90 sampled dogs. For the study, samples were collected for laboratory diagnosis by means of direct coproparasitic studies, flotation and sedimentation with supersaturated saline solution. Once the database was created in Microsoft Excel, the results were coded and evaluated, indicating that the prevalence of Uncinaria spp. in domestic dogs in the citadel was 9.9%. The results also reported twenty-six cases of Ancylostoma caninum representing 28.8% and two cases of Strongyloides stercoralis representing 2.2%. The variables considered were sex, age, race, symptoms, deworming, mortality and morbidity, which were independently associated. The independent variable breed was not a determining factor in this research, since 100% of the dogs sampled were mongrels. Based on the results, it is recommended to manage awareness campaigns to control and prevent gastrointestinal parasites for the welfare of the population, since Uncinaria spp. is a zoonotic disease.
