dcterms.abstract | Trichinellosis is one of the most important foodborne diseases in Eastern European
Countries. The main objective of this study is to examine main characteristics of
trichinelosis outbreaks characteristics. Examined outbreaks were registered in
Vojvodina region in period from 2005 to 2016 year. In this paper are presented results
of joint work of epidemiologists from Institute of Public Health of Vojvodina, food
control laboratory of Scientific Veterinary Institute “Novi Sad” and veterinary officers
from South Backa and Srem district. The average incidence of trichinellosis in
observed period was 3.5 persons per 100,000 populations. Total 828 people were
infected. The disease occurred in all age groups, slightly more often in males. The
disease was severe considering the high share of hospitalized patients and case fatality
rate (41.6±31.1% and 0.4%, respectively). Trichinella spiralis was confirmed in eight
outbreaks as the cause of infection. The outbreaks usually occurred among family
members after consumption of traditional meat products or lean meat. Common cause
of the outbreak was consumption of unexamined meat or illegally produced meat
products. In conclusion, stricter veterinary control measures are needed along with the
education of the population and the producers to interrupt maintenance of
trichinellosis. | En |
