RESUMEN
La Organización Mundial del Turismo estima que en el año 2013 el turismo continuará creciendo y que en el año 2020 los viajes internacionales van a ser 1,6 billones. En 2011 se realizaron en España 13,3 millones de viajes al extranjero. Las estimaciones de niños españoles que realizan un viaje internacional son muy escasas, pero se sabe que estos representan aproximadamente un 10% de los viajeros, porcentaje parecido al mencionado en estudios realizados en EE. UU. Además, en la última década en España ha aumentado la población inmigrante, lo que incrementa el número de familias que retornan a sus países de origen para visitar a sus amigos y familiares. Aunque los niños representan una parte importante de los viajeros internacionales, existe poca información acerca de la medicina previaje en este grupo de población. El objetivo de este artículo es describir las particularidades, en el niño que realiza un viaje internacional, de los consejos generales y las recomendaciones de vacunación y prevención de la malaria; se pretende prevenir no solo las enfermedades infecciosas, sino también las no infecciosas (AU)
ABSTRACT
The World Tourism Organization estimates that in 2013 tourism will continue growing and that in 2020 there will be 1.6 billion international trips taken. In 2011, there were 13.3 million trips taken abroad in Spain. There are very few figures for the number of international trips taken by Spanish children, but it is known that they form about 10% of travellers, a similar percentage to that found in US studies. Furthermore, during the last decade the immigrant population of Spain has grown, increasing the number of families returning to their home country to visit friends and relations. Although children make up a significant proportion of international travellers there is little information on pre-travel medicine for this group. The aim of this article is to describe the particularities of general advice, vaccination recommendations and malaria prevention for child international travellers, with the purpose of both infectious and non-infectious disease prevention (AU)
