Cryptosporidia
| Material: | Pathogen demonstration, antigen demonstration: Stool |
| Methods: |
Ligandenassays → Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Mikroskopie → Hellfeldmikroskopie |
| Indication | Acute or chronic diarrhea, especially in immunosuppressed or immune-deficient patients (HIV). | Mandatory reporting | ja As per §7 IfSG, both direct and indirect detection of cryptosporidia will be reported to the responsible health authorities, stating the patients’ name. |
| Please note | Cryptosporidiosis is an intestinal infection caused by parasites of the genus cryptosporidium. For humans cryptosporidium parvum and cryptosporidium hominis are especially important. Cryptosporidia are spread globally. Infection may be asymptomatic or cause severe watery diarrheas. In immunocompetent persons, the course of illness is usually self-limiting. In immunosuppressed patients, diarrheas may turn chronic. In immunocompetent persons, specific therapy is usually not required. Please refer to www.rki.de |
