    Worldwide, intestinal parasitosis is a public health problem that mainly affects school children. Several studies have been carried out on this pathology with the aim of relating it to the development of other diseases such as malnutrition and anemia. The present study aims to determine parasitosis and its relationship with anemia and malnutrition in children aged 5 to 9 years in the Pilahuín parish of the Ambato canton. The sample consisted of 100 children who decided to participate in the study and provided the respective bloo d samples for the measurement of hemoglobin concentration and feces for the identification of intestinal parasites by direct observation in fresh and Faust flotation technique with the use of Zinc Sulfate, additionally anthropometric measurements were taken and information was collected through the application of surveys to assess the social conditions in which children live. It was evidenced that 80% of the population presented parasitosis, of which 61.25% presented polyparasitosis, 72.50% were pathogenic parasites and a predominance of protozoa was observed in 96.5% with Blastocystis sp, Entamoeba coli cyst and Endolimax nana cyst as the parasites with the highest predom inance in this population

    The objective of this research was to determine the relationship of intestinal parasitosis and its relationship with anemia and malnutrition in children from 5 to 9 years old in the Juan Benigno Vela parish of the Ambato. This is a qualitative study of documentary and field type, where 100 blood samples were analyzed to determine hemoglobin levels and fecal samples to identify the presence of intestinal parasites through the Faust flotation technique, for the collection of information surveys were applied to each legal representative of the participant, also anthropometric data was taken from each child. It was possible to determine that 82% of the total child population was parasitized, 56.1% of them had only one type of parasite and 43.9% had more than two parasites. As for pathogenicity, 29.3% had commensal parasites and 70.7% had pathogenic parasites, 83% of them were infected with the chromista species and 16% with protozoa. The most frequent parasites were: Blastocystis sp. 43.41% followed by Entamoeba coli 20.16%, Endolimax nana 18.60% and Giardia lamblia 8.53%. As for the Body Mass Index, 86% of the children had a healthy weight and 5% were underweight; according to the results of the biometry, 68.55% presented normal hemoglobin and 25.2% presented anemia due to low hemoglobin levels. It is concluded that in the parish Juan Benigno Vela there is a high prevalence of parasitosis, but it is not related to anemia and malnutrition

    Parasitosis y su relación con anemia y desnutrición en niños de 5 a 9 años de la parroquia Huachi Grande del cantón Ambato
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Laboratorio Clínico, 2023-03-08) Lucio López, Luis Antonio; Pacha Jara, Ana Gabriela
    Intestinal parasites are part of the most important globally distributed diseases and most of these are linked to people's living conditions, especially in third world countries, the intake of contaminated water and food are a source of infection and of the development of this disease. The objective of this project was determine parasitism and its relationship with anemia and malnutrition in children from 5 to 9 years from Huachi Grande parish in Ambato city, 100 blood samples were collected and analyzed to quantify the amount of hemoglobin and stool samples to identify parasites by microscopic observation and flotation in zinc sulfate, the data and authorizations obtained from each participant were collected through surveys, informed consents and assents, in addition to taking the weight and height of each child. It was found that 47% of the children participating in the study harbored at least 1 parasite in their organism, of which 48% presented monoparasitosis and the remaining 52% presented polyparasitosis, the dominant type of parasite in the population was protozoa, representing 100% of the parasites, the most found parasite was Blastocystis sp. with 40% and to a lesser extent the Iodamoeba butschlii cyst with 1%., there is no relationship between parasites, anemia and malnutrition.

    Parasitosis y su relación con anemia y desnutrición en niños de 5 a 9 años de la Parroquia San Bartolomé de Pinllo del cantón Ambato
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Laboratorio Clínico, 2023-03-08) Bustos Ramos, Kevin Ariel; Vilcacundo Córdova, Mario Fernando
    Intestinal diseases caused by parasites represent a problem worldwide, with children of school and preschool age being the population most susceptible to parasitic infections is usually due to poor hygiene habits at home, intake of poorly prepared food and water contaminated with fecal remains. The parasitic infections present in infants who are in full development will seriously compromise their state of health, their nutritional status, growth and cognitive development. The purpose of this project seeks to determine parasitosis and its relationship with anemia and malnutrition in children from 5 to 9 years of age in the parish of San Bartolomé de Pinllo in the canton of Ambato, for this purpose a total of 100 blood samples were analyzed in order to analyze the concentration of hemoglobin levels, As well as the study of feces samples for the identification and characterization of parasites through direct observation in fresh microscope and through the technique of flotation in zinc sulfate, the data and authorizations were obtained through the application of surveys, assents and informed consents, information was also collected from the anthropometric data of each individual. The parasitic prevalence was determined in 65% of the total population, thus evidencing that the children had at least one parasitic agent in their organism. Blastocystis sp was in parasite prevalent in the samples analyzed with 47%, while in a very small amount Hymenolepis nana was found with 1%, it is important to emphasize that the parasites evidenced mostly belong to the group of protozoa with 98%.

    Parasitosis y su relación con anemia y desnutrición en niños de 5 a 9 años de la Parroquia Atahualpa del cantón Ambato
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Laboratorio Clínico, 2023-03-08) Agualongo Paucar, Ana Viviana; Vilcacundo Córdova, Mario Fernando
    Intestinal parasitosis is a public health problem worldwide, which currently continues to affect a considerable number of children in developed countries. The objective of this research is to determine the relationship of intestinal parasitosis between anemia and malnutrition in children from 5 to 9 years of age at Atahualpa parish, Ambato City. In this study, 100 samples were analyzed, both blood to determine hemoglobin levels, and fecal samples to identify the presence of intestinal parasites through the appropriate technique. Besides, anthropometric data was collected from each child in order to be categorized based on the Body Mass Index. As a result, 36% of the population had only one type of parasite while 35% presented more than two parasites. Additionally, the study shows that 97.71% of parasites are protozoa and 2.29% are helminths. The most frequent parasites were: Blastocystis sp 40% followed by Entamoeba coli 26%, Endolimax nana 15%. Regarding the results of the BMI, it was determined that 79% of children had a healthy weight and 1% were underweight; Regarding the blood results, 55% of the sample presented normal hemoglobin and 33% presented low hemoglobin levels. It can be concluded that there was a high prevalence of parasitism at Atahualpa parish, Ambato City. However, it is not related to anemia and malnutrition
