Comparación de las densidades parasitarias en gota gruesa de sangre venosa y digitopunción, en el diagnóstico de Malaria Vivax.
Open accessAbstract
Objetivo: Comparar las densidades parasitarias y resultados de la gota gruesa obtenidos por punción venosa y los obtenidos por digitopunción en malaria por Plasmodium. vivax. Material y Métodos: Estudio transversal analítico. Se incluyó a los pacientes con sintomatología sugerente de malaria que acudieron a atenderse al Hospital San Martín de Pangoa (Junín), zona endémica para malaria por P. Vivax, entre Octubre y Diciembre de 1999. A cada paciente se le realizó dos gotas gruesas, una obtenida por punción venosa y la otra por digitopunción. Resultados: Se incluyó a 73 pacientes: 40 tuvieron malaria por P. vivax diagnosticada por examen de gota gruesa positiva tanto a partir de venopunción como de digitopunción, 1 caso fue diagnosticado sólo por examen obtenido de venopunción (densidad parasitaria: 79 parásitos/ul) y ninguno diagnosticado sólo por examen de digitopunción. Se obtuvo un índice de concordancia Kappa=0.94. No hubo diferencia significativa en la media de las densidades parasitarias obtenidas por ambos métodos (5750 vs 5577 parásitos/ul respectivamente). Conclusiones: No se encontró diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre ambos procedimientos de obtención de muestra en cuanto a densidad parasitaria ni rendimiento diagnóstico.

Previous research has shown that there are no differences in parasite density or diagnostic yield between venipuncture and capillary blood.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
