“Investigación de enterobius vermicularis mediante la comparaciòn de coproparasitario y el método de ritchie para identificar la reacción de desnutrición en el desarrollo educativo en edad escolar”.

Abstract

In the research, Enterobius vermicularis was identified by comparing the coproparasite and the ritchie method to identify the reaction of malnutrition in the educational development in the Educational Unit MARCO AURELIO SUBÍA BATALLA DE PANUPALI, this parasite causes in humans an infection called enterobiasis.

The methodology had a quantitative approach because the parasites found are represented in numbers, qualitative due to the relationship between the presence of Enterobius vermicularis and malnutrition, as the research modality is experimental and field because it was carried out on site Where the facts are generated.

Of the 103 school children examined, 6 (5.8%) were positive for Enterobius vermicularis, all of whom presented grade 1 malnutrition, being able to determine the relation between this and the parasite load, although the infection rate had no major impact was stipulated That there is a high index of Entamoeba coli cyst, Entamoeba histolytica and Endolimax nana in the mentioned population, for the analysis two methods were used: coproparasitario and ritchie method where it was verified that Enterobius vermicularis was identified through the method of ritchie Which consists of a series of centrifugations which allows us to better identify the parasites.

In the project the hypothesis was verified using a descriptive statistic based on the observation method which was developed at the time of using the microscopy technique, comparing the stool sample analysis methods (coproparasitary and ritchie method) together with the Varying degrees of malnutrition obtaining that the fact that a patient presents parasites if compromises his academic performance.
