“…Several reports show that a lack of basic knowledge and many myths regarding pediculosis are frequent among school communities [33][34][35] . The major problem pointed by these reports was the misunderstanding on how head lice are transmitted and treated.…”

“…Another concern is the embarrassment among parents of infested children, which interfere with the management of this medical condition 29 . There is not a public program directed to the control of head lice in both regions studied, thus the creation of permanent educational programs, associated with the correct diagnosis, may help to reduce the prevalence of active pediculosis in schoolchildren 9,34,35 .…”

“…Os maiores índices de pediculose ocorrem nos meses de abril e agosto, que coincidem com o início ou reinício das atividades letivas nas escolas, espaços considerados os principais locais de transmissão pela aglomeração e características peculiares da população infantil (17)(18) . O parasita passa de uma pessoa para outra por meio do contato direto e prolongado ou por utensílios compartilhados (pentes, escovas de cabelo, bonés, presilhas, roupas de cama e de banho) (19) .…”

RESUMO:O espaço escolar é associado à alta infestação pelo piolho de cabeça. Este trabalho objetivou caracterizar os determinantes sociocomportamentais e a vulnerabilidade de pré-escolares à infestação por Pediculus humanus capitis no município de Aracaju, estado de Sergipe. A pesquisa de campo exploratória foi realizada de junho a agosto de 2014, na microrregião do bairro Augusto Franco, no domínio familiar (unidades domésticas) e escolar (Escola Municipal de Ensino Infantil). A análise dos dados utilizou a estatística descritiva, teste Quiquadrado de Pearson e Odds Ratio. Aproximadamente de 64% (30/47) dos entrevistados recebem até 1 salário mínimo e possuem residência própria, a quantidade de filhos foi entre 2 e 3 crianças. 30% tiveram piolho, destas, 40% realizaram tratamento medicamentoso e 13,3% catação manual. Questões como a pediculose devem ser consideradas no contexto da situação, com metodologia participativa e dialógica no contexto familiar e escolar. DESCRITORES: Educação infantil; Pediculus humanus capitis; Promoção da saúde. DETERMINANTES SOCIOCOMPORTAMENTAIS E VULNERABILIDADE DE CRIANÇAS SOCIO-BEHAVIORAL DETERMINANTS AND THE VULNERABILITY OF CHILDREN DURING EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION TO PEDICULOSISABSTRACT: Schools have a high rate of head lice infestations. The aim of this study was to characterize the socio-behavioral determinants and the vulnerability of early childhood education students to infestations by Pediculus humanus capitis in the city of Aracaju, Sergipe state. The exploratory field study was conducted from June to August 2014, in the micro region of the Augusto Franco neighborhood, in the family domain (households) and school (Municipal Early Childhood Education Center). Data analysis used descriptive statistics, Pearson's Chi-square test and Odds Ratio. Approximately 64% (30/47) of respondents receive up to 1 minimum wage and have their own residence, the number of children was between 2 and 3 per interviewee. 30% had lice, of these, 40% were treated with medication and 13.3% used manual removal. Issues such as lice infestation should be considered in the context of the situation with dialogue and a participatory methodology in the family and school context. DESCRIPTORS: Early childhood education; Pediculus humanus capitis; Health promotion.

“…Direct head-to-head contact is the mainly cause of head lice infestation, although, sharing fomites can represent a secondary route of transmission (Cummings et al, 2018). While most infestations are asymptomatic, many schoolchildren suffer from social stigmatization related to the disease's myths and misguidance, leading these children to feel ashamed and hide the infestation from family members and school community (Cunha et al, 2008;Gordon, 2007).…”

The present study aims to analyze the prevalence and risk factors of active pediculosis and to compare the efficacy and sensitivity of the vacuum method with the comb method and the visual inspection with a magnifying glass in order to determine the best methodology to detect active pediculosis among schoolchildren from Paraná state. Each child was examined by the three methods in sequence and a playful activity was introduced to increase the children likelihood to participate in the study. Additionally, hair characteristics and other risk factors as sex, age, and area of living were take into consideration to measure epidemiological aspects. From a total of 358 schoolchildren from southern Brazil, overall pediculosis prevalence was 45.5%, while active pediculosis prevalence was 13.1%. Regarding active pediculosis, there was no statistical difference among sex. However, nine-year-old girls were most likely to have active pediculosis. The vacuum method was 5.96 and 11.29 times more efficacious than the magnifying glass method and the comb method, respectively, and also had higher sensitivity (74.5%) in detecting active pediculosis. When analyzing hair characteristics, children with long and wavy/curly hair were more often diagnosed by the vacuum method than children with short and wavy/curly hair. The vacuum method was the most effective method and proved to be an optimal option to detect active pediculosis among schoolchildren, mostly in children with wavy/curly hair.
