Summary

Scabies is a Neglected Tropical Disease, particularly important in autochthonous populations. Treatment failures could explain the high prevalence of this disease in Amerindian and Maroon populations of French Guiana. Our main objective is to look for specific sociodemographic risk factors for treatment failure of scabies in the remote areas of French Guiana. A secondary objective is to evaluate the prevalence of scabies and its complications.

Data collection

During the follow-up consultation, six weeks after inclusion (S6), data will be collected using a standardized digital questionnaire, including clinical features, economic, social and cultural characteristics, housing conditions and therapeutic details (type of environmental decontamination and treatment received). Data will then be compared between patients with therapeutic success or failure. A urine test strip will also be used during the S6 consultation to screen for proteinuria. The prevalence of post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis will be extrapolated from that of proteinuria.
