- Try building your search one term at a time, and be as specific as you can! Search term example: "chronic cough".
- Do not enter multiple findings such as "anemia, chronic cough, weight loss, vomiting" all at the same time.
- After selecting your term from the search results a list of possible diagnoses will be generated. If the list is too long, you will be able to narrow it down by entering additional terms.
- Do not enter values such as "heart rhythm 110" or "sodium 125", instead use "tachycardia" or "hyponatremia".

- Definition
-
Ancylostoma caninum, the canine hookworm, has been identified as a cause of human eosinophilic enteritis, especially in northeastern Australia; In this zoonotic infection, adult hookworms attach to the small intestine (where they may be visualized by endoscopy) and elicit abdominal pain and intense local eosinophilia; Treatment with mebendazole (100 mg twice daily for 3 days) or albendazole (400 mg once) is effective; Both of these animal hookworm species can cause cutaneous larva migrans
