Executive Summary

The protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi is the cause of Chagas disease (CD), also known as American trypanosomiasis, a chronic, systemic, parasitic illness with substantial risk factors associated with low socioeconomic status. It is believed that Chagas sickness is a neglected tropical illness. It is widespread throughout 21 American countries, but it can spread to non-endemic nations worldwide through the movement of infected individuals.

The effects of CD extend beyond Latin American rural communities where vector-borne transmission - diseases spread by insects - occurs. The epidemiology and geographic distribution of CD have changed due to significant population shifts from rural to urban areas in Latin America and other parts of the world. Control measures should concentrate on preventing transmission from organ transplants, blood transfusions and mother-to-child (congenital) transmission in the U.S. and other areas where CD is currently present but is not endemic.

Treatment for T. cruzi infection can begin as soon as the infection occurs. Antiparasitic therapy may stop or slow the progression of chronic illnesses in infected people, as well as stop infections from spreading from mother to child. Two therapeutic modalities have the potential to save lives -
  • Antiparasitic medication, which eliminates the parasite.
  • Symptomatic therapy, which is intended to control infection-related symptoms and indicators.
Treatment with antiparasitic drugs is most beneficial early in the course of infection, albeit not exclusively for acute or critical cases. There are two kinds of treatments offered in the U.S. Benznidazole is available commercially and has been licensed by the FDA for use in children ages 2 to 12. Pharmacies can buy LAMPIT (nifurtimox) commercially from several medication wholesalers. It is FDA-approved for treating children under the age of 18. Healthcare providers can consult with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) personnel regarding patient care, and for the most part, therapy does not require hospitalization.
