CHOQUE, A. RAQUEL et al. Determination of occult blood in heces (SOH) by immunocromatography in students first year of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical and Biochemical Sciences of the UMSA and its family environment, in management 2016. Rev.Cs.Farm. y Bioq [online]. 2017, vol.5, n.2, pp.81-95. ISSN 2310-0265.

A descriptive, nonexperimental study was carried out to determine the presence of fecal occult blood (SOH) considering its relation with the early diagnosis of colorectal cancer. We analyzed 1093 fecal samples from students who were in the Chair of Anatomy and Physiology of the FCFB of UMSA and their family environment. Using the immunochromatographic method (SUMASOHF), all the researchers who participated were trained to perform the analysis. The samples were processed in the laboratory of Anatomy and Physiology, using a inmunocromatographic metod, (SUMASOHF). The investigatours were trained to perform the test and the samples were processed with the supervision of the professors. All samples were processed in duplicate and all positive samples were reprocessed. All results were registrated in the correspondy datasheet. The data were analysed using the a statistical program SPSS 22. We found presence of fecal occult blood in 16.1 % of the samples. The percentage of positive cases of SOH in the male gender was slightly higher compared to the number of positive cases was higher in goner of 61 to 80 age group. In the group of smokers revealed a 24.50% of positive cases and 19.20% in the group that consumes alcohol. Other causes of SOH were also investigated such as heart failure, gastritis, ingestion of drugs such as aspirin and ibuprofen. In some cases, no probable cause of bleeding was found. It was recommended to all participant with a positive test, consult their doctors for more specific diagnosis. Here were concluded that stool blood loss is a problem, which is ignored since there is absence of symptomatology, therefore, we suggest that this test be included in the routine evaluation of patients.
