Previous issue date: 2006-02-21 / The aim of this study was to know the profile of sanitary conditions of domiciliated dogs in
Campus of UFRRJ with emphasis in associated factors of prevalence of enteric parasites. In
the period of February to December of 2003, houses that had dogs were visited and their
owners were interviewed. Two hundred fifteen dogs were examinated and their faeces
collected. The centrifuge-flotation technique in saturate sugar solution was used to feacal
exames. Variables such as faeces elimination, hygiene of ambient, access to the street,
anthelmintic treatment, feed and presence of ectoparasites were analyzed as possible
associated factors of prevalence of enteric parasites. With c2 were tested the possible
association of the variables, using the program EPIINFO 2002. The prevalence of enteric
parasites in the Campus was 56.7%. The Ancylostomatidae were more prevalent (40%),
followed by Ascarididae (15.81%), Trichuris vulpis (8.37%), Cystoisospora sp. (17%),
Dipylidium caninum (6.97%) and Giardia sp. (2.32%). Mixed intestinal infections were also
observed in 48 animals. Characteristics as sex and breed weren?t associated to the enteric
parasite infections. One to 3 year dogs showed the highest prevalence of Ancylostomatidae,
emphasing the importance of prophylaxis of helminths in this age-range. Access to the street
was associated to higher prevalence of enteric parasite infection, probably by the contact with
contaminated ambient or by the deficient care of their owners. Animals on the age of 1 to 3
years showed more prevalence of Ancilostom?deos infection, verifying the importance of a
prophylaxis on the control of these helmints on this age. The sanitary conditions of dogs were
satisfactory, specially in relation to hygiene of the ambient where they lived. / O objetivo deste trabalho foi conhecer o perfil sanit?rio de c?es domiciliados no Campus da
UFRRJ, com ?nfase na preval?ncia de parasitosintestinais e fatores associados. No per?odo de
fevereiro a dezembro de 2003 foram visitados os domic?lios que tinham c?es e realizada uma
entrevista estruturada aos propriet?rios. Foram coletadas amostras de fezes de 215 animais, e
para o exame coprol?gico foi utilizada a t?cnica de centr?fugo-flutua??o em solu??o saturada
de a??car. Vari?veis como elimina??o das fezes, higiene do ambiente, acesso ? rua,
tratamento anti- helm?ntico, alimenta??o e presen?a de ectoparasitos foram analisadas como
poss?veis fatores associados ? preval?ncia de endoparasitos. Realizou-se o teste de associa??o
das vari?veis pelo c2 com uso do programa EPIINFO 2002. A preval?ncia de parasitos
intestinais no Campus Universit?rio foi 56,7%. Os Ancilostom?deos foram mais prevalecentes
(40%), seguidos por Ascarid?deos (15,81%), Trichuris vulpis (8,37%), Cystoisospora sp.
(17%), Dipylidium caninum (6,97%) e Giardia sp.(2,32%). Infec??es intestinais mistas
tamb?m foram encontradas em 48 animais. Caracter?sticas como sexo e ra?a n?o favoreceram
a infec??o por enteroparasitos, no entanto animais com idade entre 1 e 3 anos apresentaram
maior preval?ncia de infec??o por Ancilostom?deos, retratando a import?ncia de uma
profilaxia no controle das helmintoses nesta faixa et?ria. Acesso ? rua esteve associado ?
maior preval?ncia de infec??o por parasitos intestinais, provavelmente devido a maior
exposi??o a ambientes contaminados ou at? por serem menos tratados por seus propriet?rios.
As condi??es sanit?rias dos animais foram satisfat?rias, principalmente em rela??o ao quesito
higiene do ambiente onde eles viviam.
