Abstract

Background: Health care workers such as laboratory staff are encountering with patients and infective materials due to their occupational status. So, they could be suitable carriers for other people. The present study was carried out over laboratory staff of 12 hospitals in Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences to determine the prevalence of INTESTINAL PARASITE. Materials and methods: 320 staff was randomly selected for this descriptive study. Stool samples were examined by direct smear, formalin-ether concentration and modified ZeilNeelsen staining. Results: 320 staff, including 62% females and 38% males had entered this study. The prevalence of INTESTINAL PARASITEs and pathogenic parasites were 51.9% and 10.3%, respectively. The most common protozoan was Blastocystis hominis (40%), however, entamoeba histolytica and giardia lamblia were reported in 5.6% and 5.3% of the cases, respectively. Conclusion: High prevalence of INTESTINAL PARASITEs is found in laboratory staff. Interventions and further studies seem inevitable.
