ABSTRACT

Con el proposito de hacer una primera aproximacion al estudio de la frecuencia de las infecciones herpeticas del hombre en nuestro medio, se realizo una encuesta serologica entre estudiantes de primer ano de primaria de diferentes procedencias. A excepcion del herpes simplex tipo 2 y la varicela-zoster, que presentaron frecuencias de 0 y 44.5%, respectivamente, las demas infecciones herpeticas se encontraron ampliamente distribuidas: herpes simplex tipo 1, 78%; Epstein-Barr, 94%; citomegalovirus, 98% y Herpes humano 6 100%. No se encontro ninguna asociacion entre las frecuencias de infeccion y las diferentes variables analizadas: procedencia, sexo, edad, numero de personas en la familia y numero de orden del escolar en la familia; igualmente, se pudo apreciar que no existe ninguna asociacion entre la infeccion por los diferentes agentes estudiados
