The parasitic infection caused by mite Sarcoptes scabiei, scabies, is widely known as one of the world's highest morbidity of skin infections. WHO classified scabies as one of the Neglected-Tropical-Disease. Scabies has several risk factors, and one of them is malnutrition. This study aimed to know the scabies infection profile and the nutritional status of patients in pediatric dermatology division, general hospital Dr. Soetomo Surabaya.
This is a retrospective study from secondary data collected by evaluating medical records from pediatric patient aged 0 – 60 months. The data were analyzed using the descriptive methodology to measure the frequency and percentage of each variable. The results showed that most of the patients are male, below 1 year old, and had good nutritional status (31.6%)measured using the weight-height index from WHO. Furthermore, most of the samples had upper extremity as the common region with scabies lesion, and papule is the most common lesion found on patients.
