Abstract:

Food-borne parasitic diseases caused by ingesting food and water containing infective parasites are still common parasitic diseases that are easily misdiagnosed and mistreated in clinical practice. With the participation of multi-disciplinary experts, and in the light of the latest research results at home and abroad, based on factors other than the quality of evidence (economics, patient preferences and values, trade-offs, accessibility, fairness, acceptability, etc.), the level of recommendation and the quality of evidence in evidence-based medicine were assessed using the World Health Organization-recommended evidence quality classification and strength of recommendation system, and a consensus of 24 items was reached to guide and improve the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of food-borne parasitic diseases for clinical medical staff.

Key words: Food-borne parasitic diseases, Diagnosis and treatment, Consensus
