dc.descriptionThis research evaluated the presence of mange-causing mites in canines with clinical dermatitis at the Pet Shop Veterinary Clinic in Quevedo, Ecuador. Fifty dogs were examined using skin scraping, acetate tape impression, and smear techniques. Results revealed a 6% incidence of Demodex canis, with no cases of Sarcoptes scabiei or Cheyletiella spp. Skin scraping proved to be the most effective method for mite detection. No statistically significant associations were found between the presence of mites and factors such as breed, sex, or age, although a trend towards higher prevalence in adult and male dogs was observed. Bulldog and mixed breeds showed the highest incidence (14.3% each). A survey of owners revealed that 70% noticed reddened or inflamed skin, 60% observed an increase in affected areas, and 90% reported their dogs had contact with other canines outside the home. These data highlight the importance of educating owners about early detection of dermatological problems. The study underscores the effectiveness of skin scraping in mite diagnosis and the need to implement control and prevention programs. The low incidence of mites, compared to previous studies in Ecuador, suggests possible differences in environmental conditions or effectiveness of control measures in Quevedo. Additional research is recommended to better understand the dynamics of mite transmission in the region.es_ES

dc.description.abstractEsta investigación evaluó la presencia de ácaros causantes de sarna en caninos con dermatitis clínica en la Veterinaria Pet Shop de Quevedo, Ecuador. Se examinaron 50 perros mediante raspado cutáneo, impronta con cinta y frotis. Los resultados revelaron una incidencia del 6% de Demodex canis, sin casos de Sarcoptes scabiei o Cheyletiella spp. El raspado cutáneo demostró ser el método más efectivo para la detección de ácaros. No se encontraron asociaciones estadísticamente significativas entre la presencia de ácaros y factores como raza, sexo o edad, aunque se observó una tendencia hacia mayor prevalencia en perros adultos y machos. Las razas Bulldog y mestiza mostraron la mayor incidencia (14.3% cada una). Una encuesta a propietarios mostró que el 70% notó piel enrojecida o inflamada, el 60% observó aumento en las áreas afectadas, y el 90% reportó contacto de sus perros con otros caninos fuera del hogar. Estos datos resaltan la importancia de la educación a propietarios sobre la detección temprana de problemas dermatológicos. El estudio subraya la eficacia del raspado cutáneo en el diagnóstico de ácaros y la necesidad de implementar programas de control y prevención. La baja incidencia de ácaros, en comparación con estudios previos en Ecuador, sugiere posibles diferencias en condiciones ambientales o efectividad de medidas de control en Quevedo. Se recomienda realizar investigaciones adicionales para comprender mejor la dinámica de transmisión de ácaros en la región.es_ES
