[Schistosomiasis: the automation of clinico-epidemiological data].

For many communities throughout the world schistosomiasis has been commonplace for many years. A large amount of Cubans periodically arrive in their country from areas where the disease is endemic. A pack of programs was designed for automatically processing clinical-epidemiological data about it. The output tables are presented of 233 Cubans with established diagnosis who were cared for at the Pedro Kourí Tropical Medicine Institute. Nurses play an important role in caring for these diseased by providing assistance, sanitary education and other activities.
