Extractions: Subscribe now >> What is cryptosporidiosis? Cryptosporidiosis is an illness caused by the protozoan Cryptosporidium , a single-celled parasite. Is cryptosporidiosis a new disease? Although Cryptosporidium is not new, it was not recognized as a cause of human disease until 1976. Most people had never heard of the disease until 1993, when over 400,000 people in Milwaukee, Wisconsin became ill after drinking water contaminated with the parasite. Since the Milwaukee outbreak, concern about the safety of drinking water has increased, and new attention has been focused on determining and reducing the risk for cryptosporidiosis from community and municipal water supplies. What are the signs and symptoms of cryptosporidiosis? By far, the most common symptom is diarrhea which is usually watery and profuse, and often accompanied by abdominal cramping. Nausea, vomiting, fever, headache and loss of appetite may also occur. Rarely, the parasite can cause an inflammation of the gall bladder or infect the lining of the respiratory tract causing pneumonia. Some persons infected with

Cryptosporidiosis is caused by a parasite called CRYPTOSPORIDIUM. The parasite enters through your mouth and most often infects your bowels. However, it can also infect your gallbladder, stomach, pancreas, bile ducts and lungs. How do I get it? Cryptopsoridium can be found in contaminated food and water. It can be passed from person to person by poor handwashing, eating or drinking contaminated food and water, and by oral-anal sex (rimming). Cryptosporidium is found by testing stool samples or by a biopsy (taking a small sample of tissue from an organ in your body and looking under a microscope for the parasite).

Few people had heard of crypto until 1993, when over 400,000 people in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, became ill after their drinking water became contaminated with the parasite. Large outbreaks and isolated cases of crypto have been identified in Oregon as well. This has focused attention on determining and reducing the risk for cryptosporidiosis from community and municipal water supplies. For persons with suppressed immune systems, for example persons with AIDS, some cancers, or recent organ transplants, the infection may persist indefinitely, and symptoms may be more severe.

Extractions: What is cryptosporidiosis? Cryptosporidiosis is a diarrheal illness caused by the microscopic parasite Cryptosporidium , which until 1976 was not known to cause disease in humans. In 2003, there were 126 cases reported among New York City residents (rate of 1.6 cases per 100,000 persons). Who gets cryptosporidiosis? Anyone can get cryptosporidiosis. However, it causes more severe illness in persons with HIV/AIDS and others with impaired immune systems, such as people receiving cancer chemotherapy and transplant patients on immunosuppressive drugs. How is cryptosporidiosis spread? Infected animals and humans have Cryptosporidium in their digestive systems. The parasite is passed in the stool (feces) of an infected person or animal as an oocyst (egg-like form of the organism). When it is outside the body it is protected by an outer shell and can live in the environment for long periods of time. People become infected by ingesting the organism. Infection can occur by touching stool or objects contaminated by stool and then touching the mouth with unwashed hands. Persons and animals can also become infected by drinking water or by eating raw or undercooked food that is contaminated with stool from infected animals or persons. Some people have become sick after swimming in public pools contaminated with stools from infected persons. Sexual activity in which the mouth or hand may come into contact with a partner's anus or stool presents a risk. It may take very few oocysts to cause infection.

Extractions: CRYPTOSPORIDIOSIS IN IMMUNOCOMPROMISED PERSONS What is cryptosporidiosis? Cryptosporidiosis is a disease caused by an intestinal parasite. Watery diarrhea and often abdominal cramping are the major symptoms. Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, weight loss and low-grade fever. In some patients, symptoms will come and go and in other patients they will be persistent. Symptoms usually occur about a week after exposure, but can begin as soon as one day or as late as 12 days after exposure. How do you get cryptosporidiosis? The parasite Cryptosporidium parvum is found in the feces of infected animals and people. Persons, dogs and cats become infected when they swallow this parasite. This is one reason why hands should be washed after contact with pets. Hands also should be washed after changing a child's diaper and after using the toilet. Other activities that bring a person in contact with feces of another person can result in exposure. The parasite, which can be present in sewage or runoff from feed lots, can contaminate water sources, and several large waterborne outbreaks have occurred. Outbreaks also have occurred in child day care centers. In Illinois, 75-100 cases of cryptosporidiosis are reported annually. How serious is cryptosporidiosis?

Extractions: Cryptosporidiosis is a diarrheal infection caused by the parasite Cryptosporidium. The parasite is transmitted after drinking or swallowing contaminated food or water, including water swallowed while swimming. Because the parasite is protected by an outer shell that allows it to survive for long periods of time outside the body, it is very resistant to chlorine disinfection. Where does cryptosporidiosis occur? Cryptosporidium is prevalent throughout the world. Travelers to developing countries who visit rural areas, hike or trek in backcountry areas, or frequently eat or drink in areas where sanitation is poor are at greatest risk of contracting the disease. Outbreaks of cryptosporidiosis have also occurred in the United States when water supplies or swimming pools become contaminated. How is cryptosporidiosis spread? The disease is spread by accidentally swallowing anything that has come into contact with the feces of a person or animal with the infection. This includes: swallowing water contaminated with cryptosporidiosis. The infectious stage of the parasite, called a crypto oocyst, can be transmitted by swallowing water from swimming pools, hot tubs, jacuzzis, lakes, rivers, springs, ponds, or streams contaminated with sewage or feces (from either humans or animals).
