This cross-sectional study was conducted in Abo-Matariq area in East Darfur state on 570 individuals (370 males and 200 females) to determine the prevalence rate of Schistosoma haematobium and to evaluate two diagnostic methods (sedimentation and filtration techniques). The study was carried out during the period between February 2018-April 2018, urine samples were taken from the subjects. The study showed that the overall prevalence rate of infection was 20.2%, all positive cases (115) out of 570 were detected by using urine sedimentation and filtration techniques.
Males have reported a higher rate of infection than females (15.8% and 4.4% respectively). The highest infection rate of 15.6% was reported among the age group of 11-20 years, while there was no positive case reported among the 31-40 and over 40 years age groups. The study showed that among 115 positive cases, 107 (18.8%) had direct contact with water and 8 (1.4%) had no contact with water. Also, the study showed that among 115 positive cases 100 (17.6%) had haematuria in their urine while 15 (2.6%) had no haematuria in their urine. The study showed an equal detection rate for both techniques used.
