| ABSTRACT: Louse is a small, wingless and blood-feeding insect which is an extrinsic human parasite and can infect body, head and pubic area. A louse's egg is called a nit which is oval shaped, white and with the size of pin bottom. It sticks to hair and clothes seam. Different kinds of lice are: 1- head lice, 2- body lice, and 3- pubic lice. Head lice inhabit the scalp hair and bites this region (back of the head and behind ears). Different ways of pediculosis transmission are: Direct contact between healthy subjects and infected Indirect contact by sharing contaminated personal items (clothes, blankets, bed sheets, combs, hats, scarves, etc.)Infection to head lice is found in all societies. Patient detection and training are two major parts of health care services in schools. Every school year, the personnel check the students’ health status in case of any head lice infections. Having identified patients, follow-up treatments initiates. This program has been running since 2001; some successes are achieved, and in some cities infection rate is approaching to zero. However, in Salas Babajani city, the reduction of the disease burden has encountered some difficulties and despite spending resources and labor no progress has been made in this field. This review aims to determine the “factors affecting the failure to reduce the pediculosis among school girls in borderlands of Kermanshah' this study is a descriptive, cross-sectional research which acts as a groundwork for interventional studies. At first, all 3093 school girls of Salas Babajani city (including urban or rural), were put to skin and hair examination in order to determine the presence or absence of lice and nits. Two separate lists of infected and non-infected girls (as the control group) were prepared during the examination. The number of infections was 320 which is consistent with the existing data. The same number of non-infected girls were selected by simple random sampling as the control group. Both girls and their mothers completed the questionnaires. Analyzed samples were the total of 1208 school girls and their mothers categorized in two groups of head lice-infected girls with their mothers, and non-infected girls with their mothers. In order to obtain the opinions on matters related to culture and lifestyle of samples, focus group meetings were held. At the end, the results from both groups (head lice-infected girls with their mothers, and non-infected girls with their mothers) were analyzed and the relationship between lifestyle, awareness, attitude, the behavior of girls and their mothers, and also results of group discussion were compared with head lice infection. SPSS software was used for analyzing data, and descriptive statistical tests were performed. Independent t-tests were used to compare the two groups. there was no significant difference among literacy or illiteracy of mothers in both infected and control groups. There is a significant difference between living with a single father (single parent) and infection rate. The residence place of 97% of infected and 93.8% of healthy girls was equipped with a bathroom. There is a direct relationship between awareness and level of contamination among girls. 16% of infected girls believe that having head lice does not create health issues. This figure is 5.3% for non-infected girls. The vast majority of the studied samples in both infected and control groups are not willing to speak about having head lice to anybody. 62% of infected girls and 25.1% of healthy girls wear scarves at home. Average awareness about head lice, the ways to control and treat the infection are relatively equal in mothers of both healthy and infected girls. 83% of mothers of infected girls believe that having head lice does not create health problems. This figure is 68.1 for mothers of healthy girls. 74.7% of mothers of infected girls said that no measure is necessary when infecting to head lice and this disorder disappears spontaneously. 16% of mothers of infected girls and 21.6% of mothers of healthy girls have been educated about the ways of controlling head lice. 82.1% haven’t done anything about decontamination of their daughters yet. 4.7% of fathers of infected girls were aware about their daughter’s infection to head lice. Most of the group members use the word “dandruff” instead of “lice” in group discussions. Infected girls in particular are not willing to use the word “lice”. Girls said that it is not common to take their personal Jahandideh and Kabodi 987 belongings to the barbershops. It is ridiculous. At the barbershop, items like combs, towels, aprons, etc. are public and for everyone. The majority of mothers with school girls in the border city of Salas Babajani are housewives and illiterate. We suggest that: in designing health interventions, especially for the control of pediculosis in here and in similar areas, consider the housewifery of at least 97.3 percent of mothers and the illiteracy of 60 percent of them at minimum. A significant percentage of infected girls considered having head lice peculiar to impoverished communities. It seems necessary to inform them that pediculosis is not just for impoverished communities and it might be found in any other society. The education of self-caring is highly important for those with head lice infections, because history has proven that the role of classic training fades over time. Once awareness brings proficiency, then it shall be more stable. |
