    Neglected parasitic infections in the United States : Chagas disease [Spanish]

    La enfermedad de Chagas es una infección prevenible causada por el parásito Trypanosoma cruzi y se transmite a través de insectos infectados llamados triatominos (también llamados vinchucas o chinches besuconas). Por lo general, la infección inicial no causa síntomas graves y a menudo ni siquiera se diagnostica. Después de años de infección crónica, algunas personas presentan enfermedades cardiacas como ritmos anormales, insuficiencia cardiaca y un mayor riesgo de muerte repentina. La enfermedad de Chagas también puede causar problemas gastrointestinales, tales como estreñimiento grave y dificultad para tragar.
