| dc.description | Hemoparasitic diseases represent a significant problem worldwide, not only in animal health but also in public health. Among the main pathologies that affect equines are piroplasmosis and trypanosomiasis, diseases that, over time, have become a growing concern for livestock producers. These diseases can lead to severe economic losses due to decreased productivity, treatment costs, and, in some cases, death. For this reason, the present study was developed with the objective of determining the incidence of hemoparasitic diseases in equines in the General Vernaza Parish, Guayas Province. To do so, 130 equines distributed throughout the territory were sampled, including 70 horses, 56 mares, 2 fillies, and 2 colts. The data obtained were analyzed using the Percentage Method to establish the proportion of positive and negative cases for hemoparasites. The results indicated that 3.85% of the equines evaluated were positive, while 96.15% (130 cases) were negative. Among the positive cases, 3 cases of Trypanosoma (66.66%) and 2 cases of piroplasmosis (33.33%) were detected in horses. The presence of these hemoparasites highlights the importance of implementing adequate control and prevention strategies. Regarding the distribution by sex, 45% of females and 55% of males were identified, with horses being the category most susceptible to hemoparasitic diseases. These findings emphasize the need for continuous monitoring and effective disease management strategies in equine populations. Keywords: Haemoparasites, equines, economic impact, diagnosis, prevention. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | Las enfermedades hemoparasitarías representan un problema significativo a nivel mundial, no solo en la salud animal, sino también en la salud pública. Entre las principales patologías que afectan a los equinos se encuentran la Piroplasmosis y la trypanosomiasis, enfermedades que, con el tiempo, se han convertido en una preocupación creciente para los productores ganaderos. Por esta razón, el presente estudio fue desarrollado con el objetivo de determinar la incidencia de enfermedades hemotrópicas en equinos de la Parroquia General Vernaza, provincia del Guayas. Para ello, se realizó el muestreo de 130 equinos distribuidos en el territorio, incluyendo 70 caballos, 56 yeguas, 2 potrillas y 2 potrillos. Los datos obtenidos fueron analizados mediante el Método Porcentual para establecer la proporción de casos positivos y negativos a hemoparásitos. Los resultados indicaron que el 3,85 % de los equinos evaluados resultaron positivos, mientras que el 96,15 % (130 casos) fueron negativos. Entre los casos positivos, se detectaron equinos 3 casos Trypanosoma (66,66 %), 2 casos con Piroplasmosis (33,33 %). En cuanto a la distribución por sexo, se identificó un 45 % de hembras y un 55 % de machos, siendo los caballos la categoría más susceptible a las enfermedades hemotrópicas.
