All patients should be either screened or empirically treated for common parasitic infection (soil-transmitted Helminths, Strongyloides stercoralis, Schistosomiasis – depending on region of world).<\/p>\n

Empiric treatment is simple and generally safe (see link below for contraindications).<\/p>\n
Many of these patients have received such treatment routinely in their home countries.<\/p>\n

soil-transmitted helminth infections are\u00a0Ascaris lumbricoides<\/em>, whipworm (Trichuris trichiura<\/em>), and hookworm (Necator americanus<\/em>,\u00a0Ancylostoma duodenale<\/em>). Transmission of\u00a0Ascaris<\/em>\u00a0and whipworm occurs via ingestion of soil contaminated with these helminths in human feces, and infection with hookworm occurs primarily through direct contact between skin (such as bare feet) and contaminated soil. Infections may be asymptomatic or may cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea\/vomiting, or anemia due to malabsorption or blood loss. Infections with soil-transmitted helminths may be diagnosed by stool ova and parasite examination, for which, ideally, three samples should be obtained at least 24 hours apart to increase sensitivity. Treatment of choice is albendazole; however, clinicians should confirm that patients do not have a history of seizures or other neurologic deficits (which may be indicative of neurocysticercosis) prior to treatment.<\/p>\n Infections with the nematode roundworm\u00a0Strongyloides stercoralis<\/em>\u00a0primarily occur when larvae penetrate skin after contact with infected soil. Thus, infection usually occurs after children are old enough to crawl or walk. Because\u00a0Strongyloides<\/em>\u00a0can replicate in human hosts, the infection may persist for decades due to autoinfection and once acquired is considered a life-long infection unless treated. The infection is often asymptomatic, but some patients experience skin manifestations (transient pruritic papules at the site of penetration or erythematous tracks, known as larva currens, transient pneumonitis or gastrointestinal manifestations [abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption, or failure to thrive]). In the setting of immunosuppression (most commonly associated with corticosteroid use)\u00a0strongyloide<\/em>\u00a0parasites may infiltrate internal organs and unexpectedly manifest as hyperinfection syndrome with associated high rates of morbidity and mortality. Eosinophilia may be present with\u00a0strongyloides<\/em>\u00a0infections; however, its absence does not rule out infection. Ova and parasite testing is very insensitive for detecting\u00a0strongyloides<\/em>, given that shedding may occur intermittently and at low levels. Serology for IgG antibodies against\u00a0strongyloides<\/em>\u00a0is the testing of choice for diagnosis. Ivermectin is the treatment of choice but should not be used in patients from\u00a0Loa loa<\/em>-endemic regions unless co-infection has been ruled out.<\/p>\n
