Helminthocoenotic Index Class

Helminthocoenotic class indices are an important tool for assessing the composition and diversity of helminths in different population groups. These indices are used to identify and classify helminthiases based on their clinical manifestations and pathological changes in the body.

The Helminthocoenotic Class Index (H.I.C.) is an indicator that reflects the composition of the classes of helminths (for example, roundworms, flatworms, etc.) that were found in a certain population group. This index allows you to assess the prevalence of different types of helminths and determine their impact on public health.

To determine G. and. Class it is necessary to conduct a microscopic examination of feces or other biological materials (urine, blood) for the presence of helminths. Helminths are then classified according to their morphological characteristics and assigned to classes.

G. and. Class can be used to monitor the effectiveness of helminth control programs, as well as to determine the risks of infection by different helminth species in different regions and population groups.



Helminthiasis is a condition characterized by the presence of worms (helminths) in the human body. The term “adolescal invasions”, often used as a synonym for helminthiasis, is of leading importance [1].

Testing for helminths must be carried out annually in educational institutions and medical institutions, for their transfer to sanitary and epidemiological stations that will combat the epidemiological situation.

Helminthocenoses are unique communities of worms, united into a population both biochemically and morphologically. The significance of this community lies primarily in the fact that it ensures the vital activity of each parasite and the entire population in an unfavorable external environment. The helminth also participates in the transmission of pathogens and antigens according to the parasite-parasite scheme. When the concentration decreases, the gel
