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]
