We need to break down access barriers for people with #Chagas Disease
Despite substantial investment, only about 1% have been treated, so it's essential to improve primary care in health systems and simplify the diagnosis & treatment.

To encourage at-risk patients to get tested, thoroughly explain the implications of not seeking care, such as #heartfailure , #stroke , and even death. Most patients are open to testing once they are provided with information about #Chagas disease #ImmigrantHealth #IDtwitter
The following is a list of tests and procedures that a #Chagas patient may need to undertake:
1. T. cruzi serology (requires venipuncture)
2. #ECG
3. #Echo
4. Cardiac #MRI
5. Holter monitoring
6. Exercise tolerance test
