SINTOMAS El síntoma más frecuente de esta parasitosis es la picazón de la nuca y detrás de las orejas y es debido a que, cuando el piojo pica, inyecta una toxina en la piel antes de succinar la sangre.

Extractions: La pediculosis es tan antigua como la humanidad. En los últimos 25 años asistimos, en todo el mundo, a una epidemia de pediculosis. Lo que antes era patrimonio de las poblaciones con insuficientes hábitos higiénicos, hoy se ha convertido en la preocupación constante de las madres de niños de todos los grupos sociales. El piojo de la cabeza es un parásito pequeño pero visible a simple vista, que mide entre 2,5 y 3,5 mm. Las hembras son más pequeñas que los machos. Se movilizan rápidamente por el cuero cabelludo, y pueden avanzar hasta 23 centímetros por minuto. Se alimentan de sangre humana.

Extractions: Pediculosis is an infestation of lice which are parasitic insects on the bodies of humans. The condition is more commonly known as head lice body lice or pubic lice (Phthirus). Head lice Pediculus capitis ) infestation is very common, experienced by 6-12 million people around the world annually, most of them children aged 3-10 and their families. Females get head lice more often than males, and in the United States African-Americans rarely get head lice. The reasons for these two facts are not known. Lice is spread through direct contact with the body, clothing or other personal items of a person already carrying lice. There are three forms of lice: the nit, the nymph and the adult: nits are the eggs of the louse, the nymph is an immature louse and the adult is a fully-grown louse. Full-grown lice are about the size of a sesame seed. The head louse (Pediculus humanus var. capitis) Head lice and body lice ( Pediculus humanus ) are similar in appearance, although the head louse is smaller. Pubic lice ( Pthirus pubis ), on the other hand, are quite distinctive. They have pincer-like claws, making them look like

Extractions: Pediculosis and Pthiriasis Eyelid infestation by Pediculus humanus. Phthirus pubis, also known as pubic or crab louse, attached to a lid. Signs and symptoms: Pediculosis refers to eyelid infestation by Pediculus human-us corporis (body) or capitus (head). Pthiriasis refers to eyelid infestation by Pthirus pubis (pubic louse, sometimes referred to as crab louse). Eyelid infestation is almost always Pthirus pubis. Pediculus is an organism 2-4 mm long that typically infests the hair of the patient. Infestation of the cilia is rare and only occurs in the worst cases. Pthirus is 2mm long with a broad-shaped, crab-like body. Its thick, clawed legs make it less mobile than the pediculus species and lend it to infesting areas where the adjacent hairs are within its grasp (eyelashes, beard, chest, axillary region, pubic region). Rarely does Pthirus infest the scalp. Both organisms suck the blood of the host, and Pediculus humanus may serve as a vector of diseases such as typhus and trench fever. Ocular signs and symptoms include visible organisms within the scalp, hair, eyelashes or beard; visible blue skin lesions (louse bites), reddish brown deposits (louse feces), secondary blepharitis with preauricular adenopathy, follicular conjunctivitis and, in severe cases, marginal keratitis. The patient often presents with bilateral ocular itching and irritation. Superinfection of bites can lead to preauricular gland swelling.

Extractions: Congresos Médicos La pediculosis o infestación de piojos del cuello cabelludo es un problema de salud consistente en la presencia de un insecto, el " pedículus humanis capitis" , en la cabeza. Afecta a un 5- 15% de la población escolar, siendo más frecuente en las niñas que en los niños, por la mayor longitud del cabello y el uso compartido de accesorios para el pelo. El piojo de la cabeza es un insecto pequeño, sin alas, que precisa del hombre para existir. No se concibe su presencia en otro ambiente (aire, suelo...). Se transmite de persona a persona y también a través de peines, gorros y adornos del cabello. Su tamaño oscila entre dos y cuatro milímetros de longitud, y es algo mayor en las hembras que en los machos. Las hembras ponen sus huevos ( liendres ) a seis milímetros del nacimiento del pelo y los sujetan a este con una masilla insoluble en agua. A la temperatura corporal, las larvas salen del huevo en aproximadamente siete días y en quince ya se han convertido en formas adultas sexualmente fértiles. La vida media de un piojo es de treinta días, periodo en el que es capaz de poner más de ciento cincuenta huevos.

http://www.health.state.ny.us/nysdoh/communicable_diseases/en/pedi.htm

Extractions: Communicable Disease (head lice, body lice, pubic lice, cooties, crabs) Pediculosis is an infestation of the hairy parts of the body or clothing with the eggs, larvae or adults of lice. The crawling stages of this insect feed on human blood, which can result in severe itching. Head lice are usually located on the scalp, crab lice in the pubic area and body lice along seams of clothing. Body lice travel to the skin to feed and return back to the clothing. Anyone may become louse infested under suitable conditions of exposure. Pediculosis is easily transmitted from person-to-person during direct contact. Head lice infestations are frequently found in school settings or institutions. Crab lice infestations can be found among sexually active individuals. Body lice infestation can be found in people living in crowded, unsanitary conditions where clothing is infrequently changed or laundered. For both head lice and body lice, transmission can occur during direct contact with an infested individual. Sharing of clothing and combs or brushes may also result in transmission of these insects. While other means are possible, crab lice are most often transmitted through sexual contact.

http://www2.state.id.us/dhw/cdp/factsheets/lice_fact_sheet.htm

Extractions: Pediculosis (or lice) is an infestation of the hairy parts of the human body or clothing with the eggs, larvae or adult lice. At the crawling stage, they feed on human blood, which may result in severe itching. Head lice are usually located on the scalp; crab lice in the pubic area; and body lice along seams of clothing, where they then travel to the skin to feed. What are the symptoms of pediculosis? Usually, the first sign of an infestation is itching or scratching in the area of the body where the lice feed. Itching at the back of the head or around the ears should lead to an examination for head louse eggs (nits) on the hair. Itching around the genital area should lead to an examination for pubic lice or their eggs. It is easier to see nits than crawling lice. Intense scratching may result in infection. Nits are oval, whitish, about 1-3 mm in size and attached to the base of the hair shaft. How is pediculosis spread?

http://www.vdh.virginia.gov/epi/licef.htm

Extractions: The head louse ( Pediculous humanus capitus ) is one of three types of lice that infest people. Head lice are tiny insects (about 1/10 to 1/8 of an inch long) that live in human hair and feed on human blood. They multiply rapidly, laying little silvery-colored oval-shaped eggs (called nits) which they glue to the base of the hair, close to the scalp. Can you see head lice? Although it's hard to see head lice, you can see the nits if you look closely. They are most often found in the hair behind the ears and at the back of the head and neck. Nits should not be confused with dandruff. Dandruff can easily be flicked off the hair; nits cannot because they are firmly attached to individual hairs. Who gets head lice and what are the symptoms? Anyone can get head lice. They are not a sign of being dirty. Head lice are easily spread from person to person by direct contact, and are often found in school settings. One telltale sign of head lice is a persistent itching of the scalp which is sometimes accompanied by infected scratch marks or what appears to be a rash. How are head lice spread and how long is a person able to spread them?

Extractions: Eggs are laid by the fertilized female on body hairs or fibres of clothing in oval "nits". (Eggs are about the size of a pinhead and resemble dandruff). After 7-10 days, small nymphs emerge from the eggs and must feed on blood within 24 hours. Humans are the only reservoir. Three kinds of lice infest humans: 1) Pediculus humanus corporis (body louse), 2) Pediculus humanus capitalis (head louse) and 3) Phthirus pubis (pubic crab louse).
