Overview
There is no established system for the classification of Chagas disease. We can classify Chagas disease based on the transmission route of Trypanosoma cruzi or based on the clinical manifestations (acute, chronic, congenital, cardiac, and digestive).
Classification
There is no established system for the classification of Chagas disease. However, we can classify Chagas disease based on the following: [1]
- Based on the etiology transmission routes:
- Vector-borne transmission
- Congenital transmission
- Blood-borne transmission.
- Organ-derived transmission
- Oral transmission
- Based on the clinical manifestations:
