View Award Description

Reducing the burden of parasitic infections in the United States through evidence-based prevention and control activities - Chagas disease is a zoonotic infection caused by the parasite Trypanasoma cruzi, which affects an estimated 8-11 million people globally. Although Chagas disease is most commonly found in Latin American countries, there has been a growing concern that it is vastly underestimated in the United States. Estimates that use modeled data suggest that there are between 326,000 and 347,000 individuals born in Latin America living in the United States who are infected with T.cruzi. Irrespective of where a person is infected with Chagas disease, it is probable that less than 1% of people living in the United States will ever receive a clinical diagnosis and even fewer will ever receive treatment mostly due to the absence of awareness by healthcare providers. In an effort to increase awareness and improve surveillance of Chagas disease in the United States, this application proposes to 1) maintain and build upon the current Texas Chagas Taskforce model, 2) improve healthcare provider access to expert information by conducting monthly trainings using the Extension for Community Health Outcomes (ECHO) tele-mentoring model and 3) pilot a national Community Health Worker curriculum on Chagas disease that will be approved for continuing education credits. Through these proposed activities we will develop and disseminate educational materials and trainings on Chagas disease as well as provide community-level prevention and control recommendations to healthcare providers and communities in the United States. The overall goals of the project are to increase awareness of the presence of Chagas disease in the United States, improve knowledge regarding appropriate diagnosis and treatments available, and encourage multi-way communication among healthcare providers, regulatory agencies, public health networks and the community at large regarding prevention of Chagas disease. We ultimately hope these efforts will help to improve morbidity and mortality outcomes of Chagas disease in the United States.
