| local.description.resumo | The diagnosis and treatment of Chagas disease require specific knowledge about the acute and chronic forms of the disease. The initial Chagas infection is typically asymptomatic but after a decade or longer, approximately 30% of people will progress to a chronic cardiac form of Chagas cardiomyopathy with symptoms including heart failure, arrhythmias, and thromboembolism.Death is often premature and sudden due to arrhythmias or progressive heart failure.Prevention of infection through vector control programs, along with strengthened surveillance sys tems and rapid information sharing, are key to addressing the continued challenges of Chagas disease control globally | |
