Overview
Based on the severity of signs and larval density, trichinosis may be classified into asymptomatic, abortive, mild, pronounced, and severe. [1]
Classification
[2]| Classification | Presence of clinical signs | Recovery | Approx. number of larvae/g of muscle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Asymptomatic | None | N/A | <10 |
| Abortive | 1-2 days | N/A | 10-100 |
| Mild | + | 3 weeks | 10-100 |
| Pronounced | ++ | 6 weeks | 10-100 |
| Severe | +++ | >6 months | >100 |
