Parasite Map vs IBD Classes

Is your pet at risk for parasite infection? The Parasite Prevalence Maps help keep veterinarians and pet owners informed about parasite activity in their area. The Companion Animal Parasite Council (CAPC) has created an interactive map that shows the percentage of dogs and cats with positive parasite tests based on location in the US. Find out where your state and county rank in parasite infections, and how to keep your pets safe. The Parasite Prevalence Maps include data on Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, Roundworm, Hookworm, Whipworm and Heartworm. Features: * Filter results by specific parasite, year, state and county * See separate statistics for dogs and cats * Get access to specific information on how to care for and protect your pet from parasites * Share your findings on social media or email results to friends or patients directly from the app * Get detailed information on how the data was gathered, and what sources are used for the data and stats listed in the map * Sign-up for free emails to keep you updated on changes in parasite activity in your area

The PIBD classes app was developed to assist clinicians in the diagnosis of paediatric IBD most specifically in the cases of patients with IBD when trying to distinguish between ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease and IBDU. The user should then use this and other clinical information to complete as many of the 23 questions needed to then generate a suggested diagnosis. Once you reach a diagnosis, no further questions are offered eg if class 1 features are present leading to a diagnosis of Crohn’s disease the class 2 and 3 features will not appear.
